Ideally use a VPN with port forwarding (like AirVPN ~~or Mullvad~~) so you can properly seed :)

ProtonVPN also has port-forwarding.

That being said, last time I tried it, their Linux GUI was abysmal, though I hear they recently did a revamp. I haven't used it yet though so I can't speak on it beyond that.

Just something to keep mind.

 


Edit: Syntax.

Idk about the original GUI but its still not great on Linux. That said it does work.

Fair enough. We all have our preferences. :)

Oh, I didn't realise (I don't use it). Thanks for the info.

And make sure you set it up right to do so

My dumb ass left VPN_AUTO_PORT_FORWARD set as "Tru" in my docker-compose and apparently that made the image assume I MEANT "false" so it was randomizing my port and not matching the VPN to it

Fixed that stupid typo and suddenly I can seed! I. Can. FIGHT!
