I’d really like to get started with this stuff but finding the technical requirement exhausting.

Trying to install privoxyvpn- “simply add the proxy to your browser and ensure the configuration is correct” (no help as to what this means, or how to do it and following the basic instructions just renders my browser unable to connect - googling the error message gives me replies like “simply make sure you read the logs” (no description of how to get to the logs or how to read them)

hearing I need a proxy and a reverse proxy, install SWAG — “first, point the A name at your server and the CNAME at the A and then install the SSL certificate - but be sure to pick between directories and subdomains if you have fewer than 20 domains in your account.”

Like what the fuck does any of this mean?

Then I hear if I have a proxy it might interfere with the reverse proxy and both might interfere with the VPN and vice versa.

How does one even get started?

    It’s only 4 days later and I just built my first Raspberry Pi server for either Plex or Jellyfin.

        Well, I’ve got an ISP with no data caps, two layers of VPN, and 8tb to fill. I don’t know what I didn’t do this sooner, but it’s been a good weekend so far.

          Older movies, and especially older series are often very difficult to find in my experience. I just filed my 8TB and moved to a 16.
