I ask because I did a trial of AIRVPN and didn’t really like it so I’m hoping Proton is better. I just don’t wanna spend that much and not get anything out of it. And there was some stuff I really wanted to download.
Pay I just got the premium plan and it’s fast
No, any torrenting is blocked for free users.
free version does not allow torrenting, your account will either be suspended or at minimum your connection throttled
Can I use the Free Version to torrent?
No.
Why is it not possible to use the free version to torrent?
I’d advise against using a Free VPN for torrents.
I’ve seen multiple people reporting getting an email from theis ISPs after doing so.
Short answer: no

Yeah my qBitorrent is acting slow but I might just need a new VPN. Maybe that’s it.
Gotcha. Would you say it’s easy to set up and use
With my past experience, when you’re trying to torrent on a free tier your connection just stops working with a notification.
Very easy, takes only a few minutes. I’ve been using ProtonVPN over a year (free tier first, then I paid for Unlimited) and have no issues. If you don’t know anything Proton has an extensive online FAQ guide https://protonvpn.com/support/protonvpn-setup-guide/
so funny thing, I managed to get a 3 gb game to work, it just took hours. This was long ago but I got nothing from my isp and I didn’t even know at that time that mostly all vpns required you to pay for p2p for torrent and free versions were NOT ALLOWED.
