I currently have my jellyfin, sonarr and qbittorrent running all off of one machine. This machine needs torrent obfuscation, which means a VPN.

I’m currently using Nordvpn which doesn’t support port forwarding which would help with a myriad of things. But most immediately this would help with my qbit setup. Whats everyones go to choice of VPN. Must haves are no logs and port forwarding.

    Please stop with this false claim torrenting requires port forwading, it doesnt, this has been debunked many times.

      I have used it before and yeah, it does work well as long as you use their OVPN/Wireguard configuration instead of theit client. They’re also very cheap during the sale.

        pia is terrible for privacies for government (five eyes country host), but its a fine budget option for privacy against business (piracy).

        its an okay vpn as long as you are fully aware on what youre paying for

        It was purchased a while ago by a less than reputable company. But the service was court tested no log. I’ve not had issue… but the risk could still be there that they’ve started logging.

        Edit: Can always set an exit point in another country so that its unlikely that logs can be pulled regardless.

        Edit2: oh and its scriptable to grab the port assigned from the pia app and feed it to qbittorent :chef’s kiss:
