Go to ipleak.net and activate the torrent check, paste the magnet link into your torrent app while on VPN and it will tell you what IP address it detects, if it’s not the same as your regular ISP then you can verify that it’s using your VPN and not your standard internet connection.

That’s awesome, best of luck it stays that way!

Dang, how does your isp feel about that many machines talking out to the internet, have they made you pay for business plans yet?

I do this exact thing and after a year or so of running my invidious instance locally I’m not banned and never had any issues and I use it about 5 hours per day give or take. Hope this helps.

Yes it’s been like that forever. Before it used to outright block the entire domain.

The way I get around the syncing issue is to set my syncthing to sync when my phone is charging so it’s very unlikely to not be in sync, or if I change a password on the PC I’ll plug my phone into a USB and it syncs straight away.

I also use KeepassDX on Android and never have those issues.
