I'm interested in the VPN you use
I use protonvpn, which has a very nice windows client and a not so nice, but functional Linux client (don't know about MacOS). Port forwarding works either way, and you have the option of using wireguard or OpenVPN. Their website has a lot of tutorials.
I liked mullvad too, and they are cheaper, but I switched a few months ago because I got a deal for protonvpn and wanted to check out if port forwarding makes any difference for getting my share ratio back in order (and with a seedbox already in mind)
You can seed public torrents with Proton? I thought they did something to curb that a few years back.
What is your opinion on Windscribe and PIA?
I've been using PIA for many years now, and I find it quite capable. I don't torrent, or self host the arr stack, but PIA is quite capable. There are quite a few court cases where the logs issue has been laid to rest. PIA has proven itself not to keep logs. They aren't the only ones tho. Apparently, PIA runs it's services in RAM. Make sure you set it up correctly. Always do a DNS Leaktest before you download any cool, new, Linux ISOs. Make use of the multi-hop socks proxy feature.
