qBittorrent is probably the best torrent client for Windows

~~Mullvad is a relatively cheap and trustworthy VPN provider~~ (they unfortunately removed port forwarding, which is important for torrenting)

AirVPN and Proton VPN are trustworthy VPN providers that support port forwarding

Servarr is the way to go if you want to set up a server that automates everything for you

Jellyfin is the best media server, far ahead of Plex and fully FOSS

FMHY and the Champagne Piracy Wiki have lots of valuable information

Please could you elaborate about how qbittorent is a good VPN and why is port forwarding important for torrenting ? I'm kind of confused about those statement…

I was incredibly stupid when writing this comment. I meant torrent client. Fixed it.
