Since IVPN and Mullvad are both phasing out port forwarding, are there any alternatives? I am not looking for something like NordVPN which is a privacy nightmare. AirVPN is also not private enough considering I’ve seen reports online of ISPs sending out DMCA letters of gold to its users.

    I don’t have much familiarity with i2p, but is it possible for private trackers to switch to i2p all at once and alleviate this problem? With public torrents you have to rely on the masses to shuffle to i2p, but with a private tracker it’s a lot easier to just tell your users “hey we’re using this now.”

    Would a real i2p switch cause any notable downsides? I see people mentioning slower speeds but I’m not sure if they’re conflating inherent protocol slowness with smaller swarm sizes during initial adoption.

    Does anyone have any recommended resources on this topic?
