Not a solution to your problem, but just wanted to let you know you can run multiple instances of qB side-by-side. Make a new profile directory and use the option --profile=<new-profile-dir>.

The primary reason free VPNs/proxies are not recommended is due to the high amount of abuse that flows through them. As a sysop, it’s just easier to blanket ban all those IPs.

I have ethical concerns with your use of RiseUp as well. They are trying to offer a useful service to people on a donation basis, and you are funnelling a large amount of traffic through them.

Fixed, thank you

Maybe not exactly the same, but I know lots of people use this: https://github.com/StuffAnThings/qbit_manage

It relies on the qbittorrent-api PyPi library, which is feature rich.

Thought I’d throw in some things I’ve been using.

• yetCalc - it’s a calculator
• Vector Camera - novelty camera app which can make it look like you’re in the matrix
• Leon - The URL Cleaner
• Libera Reader - document viewer
• K-9 Mail - it’s thunderbird mobile now
• Imagepipe - image editor / exif cleaner
• Gauguin - sudoku like puzzle game, configurable difficulty
• Feeder - rss reader
• AntennaPod - podcast manager / player
• Element - flagship matrix client
• AdAway - host based ad blocking (requires root)
• Ente Auth - MFA

My basic check is: Are there investors / vc people involved? If so, then it will inevitably enshittify. If not, then requires further investigation. OSI-approved open source is a big plus

Even when choosing what seems like good software, I think it’s important to consider switching costs. How easily can you move to another solution, say the second pick, if things go south?

That site redirects to another domain that tries to sell me on AI roleplay whether or not tgx is down

Running any binary that you can’t examine the source of (and confirm it was built from it without modification) is risky. It’s mostly a balance of trust and risk. Even developers have been known to insert what we could malware.

That said, if you get your cracked content from a trusted source, I’d say it’s generally safe. Otherwise, exercise extreme caution.

Is GMG an official reseller? Maybe I am out of the loop, but I thought they operated in the grey market.

Been with https://www.seedhost.eu/ for a while. They’re very competitive and everything works as you would expect.
