most are still stuck to ipv4 and being NATted to oblivion, instead of adopting newer ipv6

The first thing I do with my isp provided modem is set it to bridge mode.

Contact your ISP, and request for CGNAT removal. Unless you live in Germany.

[–] Lemmchen@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago

You can do that in Germany as well.

CGNAT is the new reality, we must embrace IPv6.

Assuming you mean IPv4 CGNAT: IPv6.

Does STUN no longer work to allow port-forwarding when needed by P2P applications?

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

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

[–] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 2 points 2 months ago

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

I use Proton VPN which has port forwarding

[–] Aux@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months ago

Rent a seed box. That's the best solution for everyone.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months ago

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.
