A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Hello, for my home installation, I'm using a Raspberry Pi with YunoHost installed on it. My server is exposed through a Neutrinet VPN, but I would like to use another VPN, for example Mullvad VPN, for downloads made with Transmission, and only for that, is it possible?

I'm afraid that by installing Mullvad VPN it will take over from the other VPNs, whereas I just want it to be used as a proxy by Transmission.

Save yourself my troubles and go with this suggestion. I’m using this with a few different OpenVPN service providers and it works wonderfully.

Initially I had tried gluetun + transmission with gluetun acting as a socks5 proxy for the transmission instance but the shadowsocks impl it uses won’t support socks5 from any of the torrent clients I tested with.

Hi, thanks all for your suggestions, but I don't use docker and I don't want to use docker. I don't like the "container" aspect of it.
