Hi peeps, a little lost in the self-hosting world right now, and hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

I’ve just set up all the *arr apps that i want and need for media, music and books. And am at the step where i am supposed to bind a VPN to my qBittorrent. However, I am ofc running everything behind the beloved Tailscale. But just realised I am not allowed to run tailscale at the same time as another VPN(ProtonVPN in my case).

How do i get past this cross-road? I really want to stick with using Tailscale for accessing my services.

Is a reverse proxy something i should look into instead? I need my server to sit behind a VPN…

Appreciate any tips or tricks for how other people solved this buckle.

    I have a Tailscale subnet router set up locally and added the remote IPs to my router. Tailscale on every device was a crapshoot as to whether it would route locally or through the VPN.

    I asked support and they said it should be on every device. Could be something else on my network forcing it to act like that but I don’t have enough give-a-shit in me to troubleshoot it.
