Should I Change VPN So I can use Split Tunneling and Kill Switch Simultaneously? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Ultimately, I only want to use Proton VPN for torrenting and seeding, while not using Proton VPN for browsing the internet, using Steam and Discord (essentially everything else).

I'm currently using Proton VPN for torrenting, but sadly it doesn't support using a kill switch if I'm already using split tunneling. I read that NordVPN can use both simultaneously, but I'm not sure if this is actually true. Should I switch VPN so that I can use split tunneling and a kill switch together?

Essentially, I only want to use the VPN for torrenting, and it would be nice to be able to use a kill switch for the torrent if it loses connection.

Thank you.

Istio is a serivce mesh for Kubernetes. It's great but not intended for something like sharing media from home.

It sounds however like you might benefit from Dynamic DNS (DDNS) if you are trying to work around not having a static IP. I use this method for my Jellyfin server since it would cost too much to host that data on a public cloud provider.
