Hello! I recently set up my first home server, and would like to set up qbittorrent on it. I tried using protonVPN, which is what I use on desktop, but got rate limited because torrenting on the free plan is not allowed. What do you think of hide.me vpn? it has a CLI linux version, I think I can install it inside the docker container and set up a killswitch (that should be built in? at least that's what they say) to torrent safely.

I know paid VPNs are better and also pretty cheap, but I cannot afford one right now. Any tips?

Just go with mullvad, so far it is the only VPN I know of that allows you to pay with physical currency with zero papertrail back to you.

    Didn't Mullvad ban torrenting?

    edit: looked it up, looks like they didn't. Can't remember what I read that said they did.
