You do not need to set up port forwarding on the website. They give each customer a static IP, so as long as you configure your ip tables to allow port forwarding, it just works on any port. QBittorrent worked out of the box.

Since my airvpn test month expired, I’ve just bought a Njalla subscription. Here are my experiences:
Pro:
Contra:
Conclusion: for my usecase (Raspberry-Pi-based torrent box) Njalla looks great. If you want to use it on multiple devices or need to circumvent geoblocks, you should look for a different service.
It seems like they made the same mistake as youtube-dl back in the day. If you develop a tool that can be used for piracy, do not straight up advertise that in your readme/documentation.
If you create a YouTube downloader, do not show it downloading music from major labels, use for a creative commons track for the demo instead.
And dont say in the short description of your repo that this tool is meant to steal books from an online lending library.
KDE Sytem monitor has that function, too. You just have to add it to the history page (Sensors/GPU/Usage)
You can access ZFS snapshots from the hidden .zfs
folder at the root dir of your volume. From there you can restore individual files.
There is also a command line tool (httm) that lists all snapshotted versions of a files and allows you to restore them.
If the snapshot you want to restore from is on a remote machine, you can either send it over or scp/rsync the files from the .zfs directory.
Yes, it does. You can also use the tool to check if a file is cached (just run it without any arguments for that).
If you use a VPS as a backup target, you can also format it with ZFS and use replication. Sending snapshots is faster than using file-level backup tool, especially with a lot of small files.
You can use Spotrip. The original developer made his code private in fear of DMCA takedowns, but there are a few forks around.
There are a lot of audiobooks available on music streaming sites like Spotify and Deezer. You can download those with Deemix. But that may be limited to certain countries. I am from Germany and here a lot of audiobooks are owned by record companies which publish them on streaming services.
Searching for second-hand CDs on ebay may be worth it, too. I’ve gotten some good deals there as well.
I switched to AirVPN after finding out that Mullvad disabled port forwarding. I have heard rumors that the did that because of people hosting cheese pizza via their VPN accounts.
The performance of AirVPN does vary, I had to try a couple of countries before I found a server that didn’t throttle me (and I only have a 50MBit connection).
Maybe I will try Proton in the future, but then I would have to commit to a 2year subscription or pay a lot more.
Here is the VPN setup page of Njalla. As you can see, it looks just as spartan as the public-facing parts of their website.
