Can anyone recommend a VPN that has working port forwarding? (lemmy.ml)

I already had a cyberghost sub, but decided to try to switch to something better for seeding.

I have tested ProtonVPN and PIA, but ended up refunding PIA as the port forwarding didn't work once. ProtonVPN has worked maybe 5% of the time, and will likely be refunded as well.

Is there such a thing as a VPN that can consistently forward ports? I'm considering trying AirVPN next, but am hoping someone could confirm whether it works or not first. I'm also open to any other recommendations.

Thank you!

Maybe I'm being a total noob, but I thought Proton's P2P servers were enough? Is port-forwarding on Proton or others different from that?

The P2P servers on protonvpn are good for downloading but seeding doesn’t really work for whatever reason

Interesting, I've been seeding with no problems
