Read the megathread ffs, use ProtonVPN

for direct downloads it works, however I tried to torrent on it and it disabled and said "no p2p". I pay for mullvad now and have no regrets

How did you set it up? Proton offers port forwarding, which mullvad does not

[-] Psythik@lemm.ee 7 points 1 day ago

Don't use Proton, use Mullvad.

That said, if you're only paying for a VPN so you can torrent, you're better off getting a Debrid service instead (like Real-Debrid). It's cheaper and gets you direct downloads to any torrent you want at 1Gbps speeds.

This is the way. Plus you can set up RD through Stremio/various Kodi add-ons so you can stream shows and movies directly from them. And! They even give you credits when you pay for service, that you can then redeem for more service. Pretty nifty ๐Ÿ™‚

Proton is not that good bro. At least not the free version. I kind of hate when people suggest it because just like other free vpns, the free version is designed to not work well. It does basic browsing very well but you are not gonna torrent with it.
