For what is worth I haven't been able to get the storage sync to work, the VPN app isn't as simple/fast/as easy as mullvad, proton has little support for Linux. I use proton because it works with portmaster but I'm not a huge fan of it.
They offer OpenVPN profiles for their VPNs so you can use them on basically any platform where that's available.
And even better: wireguard configs as well
Some third party tools you might find useful.
I do use rclone but I'm pretty happy with b2 storage. I did a small test with proton and it seemed to work.

VPN in docker with port forwarding. Didn't have any luck routing host traffic through it but I didn't dig too deep. Might be useful for a web based torrent docker container.
