I've never had a problem with it in Spain. What is different where you live? CGNAT?

Localhost NAS with large storage, Rclone to seedbox, synch, remove old content from seedbox

Ah, right. Thank you for your service. 🫡
It still works for now, but it would be neat if only the uploading part needed to go through a VPN since that's the bit you can get in trouble for.
Would need a way of obfuscating the uploaders and downloaders though.
You have to separate pirating and torrenting. I'm pirating stuff non stop each day. I'm torrenting maybe once a month, if that. It's just not the go to thing for a lot of users, so issues around VPNs and torrenting probably aren't that pressing to warrant any kind of reaction.
Yuup. Torrents are for the rare thing I care about that isnt on either nzbgeek or matrix.
Matrix? Are there some Matrix rooms with Linux ISO?
Usenet indexer, no affiliation
Looking it up and the ut's all news like this:
NZBMatrix, a popular Usenet indexer, closed in 2012 due to a large takedown notice from Hollywood studios
Yea, iirc its a spinoff of that from ages ago.
Port forwarding is premium? On what exactly? I must be out of the loop...
we ran out of IPv4 addresses quite some time ago. the likelihood of being on a carrier grade NAT is pretty high.
and if you're lucky enough to have access a direct IPv4 address (also a premium feature and priced as such) your ISP can still be blocking certain ports.
and on top of all that what @DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com said
your ISP can still be blocking certain ports
that's no problem here because bittorrent can run on any port. qbittorrent randomizes it at install

Contact your ISP, and request for CGNAT removal. Unless you live in Germany.
Why not in Germany?
I mean, torrenting in Germany is a big no without a VPN.
You can do that in Germany as well.

I don't see that where I live - some ISPs offer port forwarding, some don't. Some just give you IPv6 with ports unlocked manually in router config
