Pretty much what the title says. I noticed that ProtonVPN Linux has an EXTREMELY limited interface compared to their program on Windows. I also do not appear to have the option to bind qBittorrent to ProtonVPN the same way that I did with MullvadVPN. Has anybody experienced ProtonVPN on Linux and successfully used it for torrenting? It's nowhere near as simple as on Windows, from the looks of it.

It seems like the linux app is just an afterthought for ProtonVPN. It takes an ungodly amount of time to start up and I often get errors when I forgot to disconnect it before the last restart of my system. Thus I only use the CLI. It is much better and is very transparent about which servers are for P2P and which are not.

They are supposed to be working on a complete rewrite of the Linux client that's coming out soon.

Yes, but it still doesn't have wireguard, only openVPN.

True, but WireGuard is on their roadmap of features in the works
