As far as I know, proton doesn't allow port forwarding, so makes using it for torrenting suboptimal. If you want to use torrents with a VPN, there's better options
PF works with proton, I use it. But you have to continuously call it to stay open. (On linux)
Yeah, it's a bit annoying and really should be built in to the CLI or GUI apps.
It does allow port forwarding. The Windows app supports it. On Linux, you can do it via a one-liner script: https://protonvpn.com/support/port-forwarding-manual-setup/
