Maybe I’m looking at a different guide than you, but I’m not seeing any way for qbittorrent to auto update the forwarded port from Proton. Everytime your VPN connection resets (either from reboot or just a dropped connection), you have to manually update the port in qbittorrent. Of course there are some scripts that can do this for you.

ProtonVPN forwarded port is random on a new connection, it’s not that you’re using windows that this is the case.

If you use docker with portainer (for the GUI), you can set up the gluetun container with your protonvpn account and run all your other containers through that as their network. It’s as simple as adding

network_mode: service:gluetun

to your stack configuration for each container.

Like others have said, running a DE with remote capabilities will be a lot of overhead.

If you set up portainer and watchtower using ssh, you can pretty much just manage everything from portainer while watchtower makes sure that portainer and the rest of your containers stay updated. It’s a very hands-off operation, especially if you set up auto updates on top of that for the pi OS. You’ll probably just have to ssh in periodically to run a system upgrade and maybe restart to update the kernel.

Sweet. Yeah I’m the same way. I will just not watch YouTube on my phone if I can’t have an ad free experience

Very strange. Well I hope you can get it figured out !

Are you using the revanced manager to patch the apk?

That’s so strange! I just updated mine within the last couple of days and it works just fine

Because I do like the wallet function. I just don’t need it. But I greatly prefer an ad free life to the convenience of wallet.

If this stops revanced from working it will be my push to install grapheneos. I don’t need the wallet function really.

Gratuitous can be used to mean the same thing, but English speakers also use gratis

ProtonVPN?

But no p2p on free. Honestly, OP, for this one you may just have to drop some cash on a reputable VPN

Jellyfin is also a fork of Emby so there’s some continuity there for OP

Heads up, pivpn is now unmaintained !

You can install smarttube next on your shield. It has sponsor block as well as regular ad block

I don’t smoke anymore either, but when I did I bought pure cotton filters that were biodegradable in case they left the bin somehow.

Believe it or not, kids these days are using Instagram dms over Whatsapp

I’d say mostly practical reasons. It’s hard to get everyone in your contacts list to switch to Signal or other options. WhatsApp is so widely used that it’s hard to eliminate it completely without losing touch with friends or family. We’re trying, and hopefully with time enough people will switch that WhatsApp can fall to the wayside
