Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

I use ProtonVPN with Ubuntu 23.10 and it works fine. I also use it with Windows and the only difference I've noticed between the two is that port forwarding is a lot more fiddly to setup in the Linux client, whereas it just works out-of-the-box with the Windows client. For that reason, if you're doing a lot of torrenting you may wish to look at alternatives, though as I understand ProtonVPN is one or the few remaining good VPNs with port forwarding.

I really like ProtonVPN with the unlimited plan. Comes with their premium email, drive, and password manager for $8-12 a month (depending on what plan length you buy)

Using torguard. Works well

Safing.io portmaster with SPN. It's better than any of the other recommendations so far.

PIA for cheap service

Proton and Mullvad have the best privacy record, but I want to suggest a different tool. VPNs are really only useful for tunneling and adding an extra layer of anonymity, there's no total assurance they won't rat on you or get breached.

Real-Debrid is a way to torrent without risking ISP shutting down. Other debrid services exist, I just prefer real-debrid. The debrid service does the illegal part and you download over high speed. It's also more available since you can think of it like a very large scale seedbox. There's also implementation for most media center apps.
