Hello! I recently set up my first home server, and would like to set up qbittorrent on it. I tried using protonVPN, which is what I use on desktop, but got rate limited because torrenting on the free plan is not allowed. What do you think of hide.me vpn? it has a CLI linux version, I think I can install it inside the docker container and set up a killswitch (that should be built in? at least that’s what they say) to torrent safely.
I know paid VPNs are better and also pretty cheap, but I cannot afford one right now. Any tips?

Just self host, it’s free on Oracle cloud
Until they randomly ban you and shut down your free services
I guess that’s a risk you’ll have to be willing to take when you get something for free
