I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

I just can never wrap my head around getting Qbittorrent (Binhex) to work with VPN. I'm with Proton VPN and when I attempt to add it, it just won't actually download anything.. Works without it which ain't helpful!

If anyone has the skills/expertise, please help aha.

The free version of Proton VPN blocks torrents, fyi.

If you have qbitorrent installed and also your VPN is installed:

Open qbit Click Tools> Options> Advanced Change "Network Interface" drop down and click your VPN there.

Hope that helps

You're using the correct OpenVPN creds from your Proton dashboard, and the applicable nameserver/sIP addresses for the VPN endpoint and DNS lookup for Proton? If DNS lookup is failing, try setting it to 9.9.9.9 or 1.1.1.1 and see if you get resolution.
