As someone who has recently started seeding as much as I can, this is a great question to which I don't have the answer.
I am not renewing my Proton yearly subscription after it ends due to recent developments. They seem to be the only "big name" VPN with the port forwarding feature. I heard of OpenVPN, but have not had a chance to dig into it too much.
My ISP does not provide IPV6 support, so this will be pretty important to sort out soon.
I use Private Internet Access (PIA) and that has port forwarding. I read something about it on reddit but forgot about it, so idk of there's anything bad it controversial surrounding PIA.
There is, just not in relation to piracy. The concerns are more over its financial incentives/ownership and privacy.
