Finding that torrent sometimes don't download at all despite seeders being present, so having to look around.

I had seen ivpn recommended before, but they don't allow port forwarding anymore.

I use azire now. Works well so far.

I don't really see people recommending Azire. How are the speeds?

I like how they have an api for stuff like port forwarding etc (albeit with mediocre documentation), and how they use all their own servers.

So far I could always max out my connection, it is only 100Mbit/s tho.

Been thinking about trying Azire, do they provide static ports?

No, the ports expire, but you can script the renewal / new port process via their API. I want to set up a job that gets a new port like 1x per week and tells it to the applicating using the port. Haven't done that yet. So far my port stayed active for like a month.

Oh that's neat. Yeah I use Airvpn currently, but would be interested in Proton or Azire if I could automate with a script like you said.
