For folks that are unable to port forward on the local router (eg CGNAT) I made this post on doing it via a VPS. I’ve scoured the internet and didn’t find a complete guide.

    In most environments ipv6 bypasses cgnat (because, why would you need a nat with ipv6).

      Like I said ip6 is useless when it comes to torrenting. Even if the tracker supports it it’s not persavive with users connecting to you.

        The general topic was about self-hosting. IPv6 is very useful for self-hosting,… connections.

        I’ll admit there is a critical mass problem with torrenting clients, but if you’re trying to set up a wire guard tunnel with your friends, IPv6 is a absolute banger
