Mullvad is not the first on the list?

Mullvad no longer supports port forwarding, making it completely useless for torrenting which is my main use case.

Really? I was planning to switch to Mullvad.

Had to leave MV because of this. I went to Proton, though I did need special software to support its form of port forwarding without introducing a regular hassle. All good now, mostly.

Yep I use the binhex container too, makes everything really easy to set up.

I was looking at Proton too but I'm already a customer and the VPN is going to be shared with family members. I worries if they can access my mail if I share my account.

You can get around this by generating the files for OpenVPN or Wireguard for them and sending those.
