As stated above, make sure to bind Qbit to your VPN's ethernet adapter. Other than that setup search plug-ins/Jackett and enjoi the best torrenting software there is.

If you have a hard drive as your main storage, and in particular a raid array of smr hard drives, it's worth checking the 'pre-allocate disk space for all files' check box in the connection settings. it keeps disk fragmentation down and lowers raid thrashing a shitton when downloading large media files. You won't notice if it's just you using your one hard drive, but it made a huge difference on my raid5 smr setup.

Port forward

Also don't set anonymous mode, it's not useful and gives you worse performance

I can't recall what theme I installed, but a darker theme is always nice. Found this after a quick search: https://draculatheme.com/qbittorrent

I've only set the interface to use my VPN, so I'm very interested in any advanced suggestions as well.
