Is there any reason NOT to switch to ProtonVPN from Mullvad?

Use cases: privacy, torrenting without getting a DMCA letter.

OSs: Linux, Mac.

I know there was a reason I didn't pick up Proton years ago when PIA got bought by Kape but I don't remember what it was. I'd read something on /r/VPNTorrents but that place has since been banned so I can't refer to it again.

Proton is way better for our use cases since it offers Port forwarding which Mullvad stopped supporting.

Mullvad has good marketing that's why people think it's more secure, in reality, both are almost the same in terms of privacy and security for your average joe.
