Just wanted to say that for most use cases there is a better way to do things than using port forwarding. And by that I mean by using something like Tailscale.
So, maybe before you start looking for an alternative to Mullvad have a look at the possibility of dropping port forwarding first and improving your security at the same time.

Yep, for things you host absolutely. However, P2P applications (e.g. torrent clients) are still going to be negatively affected by this.
