I just messaged someone after not getting back after 4 years :) . Online friend so not completely crazy to have not communicated.

Suggestions for locations to hang them up?

Cool I will look into it, I always thought I was stuck not port forwarding due to the campus situation, and therefore stuck with bad upload speeds. In fact that was a reason I was going to use Mullvad in the future despite them not having port forwarding, but I'll have to consider some other suggestions if I can get the port forwards working.

Definitely will look into Docker more, I've heard of it but hadn't gotten around to giving it a shot before. Gluetun is not something I've heard of though. Sounds like a good setup for what I want. Any suggestions on getting started with Docker?

Just meant that being on student housing I am unable to access a router / configure any port forwarding (to my knowledge). PIA's VPN does support port forwarding though.

edit - Sorry, I misread part of your comment. Didn't realize forwarding could be used without router access.

A smaller dedicated PC has been something I've been considering, maybe a used laptop even?

Not sure what upload speeds I'm getting but I do have high capacities. Also considering getting into private trackers because I'd like to be maintaining a high ratio.

Sadly my situation is incompatible with port forwarding with any VPN.

Definitely awesome, bookmarked for future use.
