Here is a list of WireGuard VPN providers. I've chosen to only list providrs what have a maximum of 2 major concerns over at safetydetectives.com, these concerns can not be security related. I receive no commission for linking to these providers. Personally I have only tested Mullvad, which are a great provider, so I can't speak for the others. Read about them and make up your own decision.

1. git clone https://github.com/SebDanielsson/compose-transmission-wireguard.git
2. Edit wg0.conf (WireGuard) with credentials from your VPN provider.
3. Edit transmission.env and add your preferred username and password to access the WebUI. Also change peerport to a port that is open at your VPN provider.
4. docker compose up -d and you should be up and running.
5. The Transmission WebUI is accessible at 127.0.0.1:9091. I highly recommend to use a VPN to access your WebUI remotely.

Update bind-address-ipv4 and bind-address-ipv6 in Transmission's settings.json to the IP addresses that you were provided in your wg0.conf.

Default WebUI theme is Transmissionic bundled with linuxserver/docker-transmission. See their repo for alternatives.
