Yeah, I switched to them after mullvad (i
I also tried airvpn before Proton) and it works great.
One extremely annoying thing with Proton VPN is that the port changes after every single (re)connection so you need to reconfigure your torrent client.
Fortunately there is a fork of the VPN client I use which automatically configures qbittorrent with the new port.
Yeah, slight inconvenience there, but like you point out there’s ways around it. In my docker setup, I’ve got a container that takes the random port from gluetun and drops it into qbittorrent.
Proton’s great for torrenting since they support port forwarding for their paid tiers.

How come you switched to them from Mullvad?
They removed port forwarding.
I have this problem as well, been joking to myself that it’s “the price I pay” for using an otherwise fantastic VPN lol.
