I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

Why do I need port-forwarding for torrents?

Torrenting happily on Mullvad right now.

For peers to connect to each other, at least one of the two connecting needs to be port-forwarded, so if everyone were on Mullvad, now no one would be able to reach each other. Right now you can still torrent on Mullvad, but only with (non-Mullvad) users who use port-forwarding.
