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.

What am I looking for on there to know if my VPN is working as intended or not?

I like to use this. It generates a custom torrent. Then shows the IPs connected to it. Whatever it shows should not be your public/home IP https://torguard.net/checkmytorrentipaddress.php

Thanks. What results am I looking for to make sure it works?

While connected to the VPN you shouldn't be able to see your real IP address. There is a torrent magnet link near the bottom left of the page that you can download and run on your client (qbit, transmission, etc) which will check whether that's leaking anything too.
