Sci-fi streaming shows dominated the list of the most-pirated shows this year, with Pedro Pascal headlining a one-two hit between Last of Us and Mandalorian.
I’d start with Radarr (Movie manager), add on Prowlarr (indexer manager), then expand from there. Once you’ve learned Radarr, the others are very similar.
After that, look into a reverse proxy along with a domain name: Nginx or Apache are the two I hear about most. I use nginx myself. This will let you access services using easily readable names (\sonarr.example.com) instead of having to remember the ip+port combinations of each service (\192.168.0.200:8096) as well as add https if you’re going to be exposing things like emby/jellyfin/plex publicly.
A domain can be purchased/rented from a public registrar to point at your public IP, but you can also use them entirely within your own LAN for free if you setup a local DNS server. I just use pihole for this: easy to setup+use, while providing DNS based adblocking for the whole network.
I don’t mind answering questions or providing clarification where I can. :)
That’s the same as having them within the same LAN. That makes https unnecessary, but you’d still have to remember ip+port combos without a domain. The domain doesn’t need to be publicly registered unless you want services to be accessible externally without a VPN connection.
I only allow a couple of my services to be accessed directly via public domain, mostly for sharing with friends. The rest you’ve gotta be within the LAN either by wifi/ethernet or a VPN that I host.

Their quick start quides are pretty good.

Could you just connect the server and the client to the same VPN?

I’d prefer to be able to setup like you have, but an always on VPN for stock Android is a PITA.
Been running openVPN as an always on VPN for stock Android for about 2 years now. Keeps it behind pihole and able to access my LAN only services.
The only issue I have is manually having to tell it to reconnect when the device restarts. Other than that it’s been no different than no vpn.
