Mullvad or IVPN. Some VPNs like Perfect Privacy do leak your IP via DHT and other torrent features, even when full lockdown mode is on. You can search 'torrent leak test' to verify yours doesn't. I found out with a 2nd DMCA warning from my ISP.

Is a VPN even worth it for that use case? A seedbox won't cost that much more, esp. if you factor in electricity costs from keeping your machine running. And getting to 1.0 seed ratio is also much easier.

It feels better with no condom. Private trackers have no STI’s.
You could self-host wireguard on a cheap VPS using something like YUNOhost. You would be limited to the one IP address but you could also host other useful stuff on the same server like email, website, Nextcloud etc for no additional cost. On a slight tangent, you could also check out seedboxes or even TorBox.

I would go for IPVanish, Surfshark or Windscribe.. Mullvad it's a good option too, I would bypass NordVPN.
I believe Surfshark it's the cheapest of these options.
