Advanced pirates, whats a tip others might not know?
I'll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It's not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

Binhex does the same thing. There are checks performed before it allows connections to make sure it can resolve DNS across the VPN interface and that it can obtain an IP address from PIA (I also use them, grandfathered $6.95/mo baybee).
Nice, im grandfathered into a cheap yearly rate, i thinks its like 60 a year
Are you using port forwarding? Back when I had PIA (before they sold), they would randomly assign you a port when you connected which caused major issues with QBit as you have to set a fixed port number. Not sure if that's your issue but it might be worth looking into.
I do, and qbit (through Binhex's container image) matches that port in qbit whenever it gets assigned. I think. Personally I've almost never had an issue reaching peers
