No port forwarding really kills the utility though - I mainly use the VPN to do port forwarding (e.g. for video games, Plex, etc.) as my ISP is shit.

Like I’m not worried about state-level de-anonymisation, I just want to be able to share services remotely and have a minimum level of anonymity.

I host a server, I forward the port, my friends can connect to the open port on the VPN side.

My ISP does not offer port forwarding.
