Because I already pay for Proton for drive, mail, and other services. I've used Mullvad in the past, and I definitely prefer it as a simple torrenting VPN, but Proton offers a lot more.
That's valid but I would still go with options that don't bill themselves as private only to hand over info to feds. I like Tuta.mail because they don't try to get a phone number out of me lol. Cloud services are abundant. You do you though, I get the feeling neither of us is slinging MDMA and privacy is just a technical requirement.
Don't listen to them. Mullvad is a bad VPN for torrenting, they don't even have port forwarding. Also tun0 is what you want to bind your qBittorrent to.
