Proton has its issues. Cant use killswitch together with split tunneling and not all servers have port forwarding enabled

This is fine with me. Kill switches aren't perfect so I just have QBit bound to the VPN so it won't run without it.

Of course not a problem for qbit but its a problem for browsers.

Yes, but can they handle the influx of people coming for port forwarding with their servers? This seems to be why IVPN has claimed they are not offering it; and removing the feature from paid subscribers. There is a lack of logic in removing it from existing clients who renew each year.
