Hi folks, I'm looking for a VPN with port forwarding capabilities for some very basic torrenting. https://www.top10vpn.com showed up in my search with interesting articles and VPN provider info and evaluations. I just wonder if their tips are trustworthy or if they are completely beholden to someone.

Top10VPN is not a VPN provider, it's a review website. Neither Mullvad nor Proton support Port Forwarding, AFAIK.

Proton does but only paid version and not free.

Proton does. I switched from Mullvad for that very reason.

From what I've heard, the port forwarding is really bad on Linux.

The port forwarding is fine on linux, you just have to do the natpmp interactions yourself
