PIA is the best for torrents. It is $79 for 39 months which is $2.03/mo and they have port forwarding. That's less than half of pretty much every other provider.
I have had 3 clients (one for a specific tracker, one for everything else, and an extra seedbox) going 24/7 for years with no problems. No complaints about the speeds either. I frequently saturate full gigabit on both downloads and uploads.
I have 4 seed boxes I run on pia. My only issue is that the port changes from time to time. I have to check on them every week or so. It's also one of the only court tested Vpns, though it did change hands after that
Edit: Turns out the pia client has a bash accessible command to get the active port. And Qbittorrent has a curl-able target to set the value. One bash script and a crontab... and now I don't ever have to deal with the port changes anymore. You're welcome leechers!
This seems to be great as it should works
