Best OS for Arr suite, Proton VPN, and Plex (lemm.ee)

So as I look to build my first dedicated media server, I’m curious about what OS options I have which will check all the boxes. I’m interested in Unraid, and if there’s a Linux distro that works especially well I’d be willing to check that out as well. I just want to make sure that whatever I pick, I can use qbittorrent, Proton, and get the Arr suite working

I'm currently playing with setting up a home server on an old PC, using Proxmox as the main OS and using LXC and VMs for the services, not fully set up yet (still working on figuring out reverse proxy to make my services available on the internet)

It's neat tho, and there's some helpful scripts for installing various containers and things online.

I would need that because I’m basically starting from zero with learning all this stuff lol. Using Tautulli remotely is a challenge for me right now if that gives any indication of my level of knowledge here

I've seen you mention this a few times and like mentioned elsewhere in here, set yourself a Tailnet up.

It's fugging brilliant, the docs are wrote by some very clever people (note, I am best described as a copy / pasta person?) and are through, and you can use a github or even a Google account for authentication.

Even grabbing a cheapo raspberry pi4 gives you a 1GB port (the rpi3 only has a 100Mbps rj-45 port and would still suffice for lesser needs) for your own ~~VPN~~ Wireguard to home, that is P2P encrypted and can be used as an Exit Node / subnet router

ie: if you're on someone else's internet/cellular you can simply hit up your exit node to break out of any nanny filters, stop anyone else noseying at your traffic (obv bar your ISP seeing outgoing requests unless you have a another...VPN on your router), and also view and/or manage any devices on your home network/Tailnet by IP address.

Hell, I dumped a rpi down at a family members house that is part of the "stack" so I can help out remotely but it seems someone has knocked the aerial out of the HAT again :/

Best thing ever.

Mmm good stuff, I'll have to check out tailscale.

I ended up going with a traefik setup, which works well but more options info is always good.

https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/ Check out proxmox, then check out the above scripts and start with the post install script, then something like Ubuntu to get a feel, you can use the other scripts for specific containers
