Just a PSA: VPN and cover your ass as you pirate.
Ideally use a VPN with port forwarding (like AirVPN ~~or Mullvad~~) so you can properly seed :)
Mullvad hasn't had port forwarding for like a year or more?

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.
Oh yay. :)
im not even sure the gui worked on my system lmao, i just used their cli version
Fair enough. We all have our preferences. :)
