i torrent video files via qbittorrent from my PC onto a truenas folder on my server (my old PC), which is attached to a jellyfin jail, from where i can watch it with every device i have wireguard vpn installed on. boom. private video streaming service.
for ebooks, the same thing happens, but i manually move the files onto my kobo libre 2. i don't have very many ebooks to manage.
the syncthing idea is great, but i suspect your ebook reader is running android. the libre 2 runs a closed down version of linux i believe.
Why the VPN and not a normal domain?
You didn't ask me but possible reasons are:
Normal domain only for allowing others access to specific services (like friends+family into emby/plex/jellyfin). VPN for easily secured access to all the backend interfaces like radarr/sonarr/qbittorrent or private services like vaultwarden.
I also run the VPN to keep mobile devices behind pihole for adblocking.
the simple answer is: me big stupid
i had a domain, but dyndns and all the other stuff required is too complicated for me to figure out.
