So as I look to build my first dedicated media server, I’m curious about what OS options I have which will check all the boxes. I’m interested in Unraid, and if there’s a Linux distro that works especially well I’d be willing to check that out as well. I just want to make sure that whatever I pick, I can use qbittorrent, Proton, and get the Arr suite working

interesting. proton has example openvpn configs on their site which was hugely helpful to me. dunno if they have wireguard equivalents, or if those are needed.

I'd be weird if they didn't have Wireguard configs, Wireguard is basically the standard nowadays. It's faster and safer (the code base is way smaller, so the chance of there being security vulnerabilities is a lot lower and can be fixed more easily).

Looks like they do have both openvpn and wireguard configs. Is it true that for torrenting openvpn is preferred? That's basically the only reason I use vpn.

I think so. The main reason I use OpenVPN for that is just that that's what Gluetun uses. You should search that up online tho, I don't really remember why OpenVPN is better.
