I’d really like to get started with this stuff but finding the technical requirement exhausting.
Trying to install privoxyvpn- “simply add the proxy to your browser and ensure the configuration is correct” (no help as to what this means, or how to do it and following the basic instructions just renders my browser unable to connect - googling the error message gives me replies like “simply make sure you read the logs” (no description of how to get to the logs or how to read them)
hearing I need a proxy and a reverse proxy, install SWAG — “first, point the A name at your server and the CNAME at the A and then install the SSL certificate - but be sure to pick between directories and subdomains if you have fewer than 20 domains in your account.”
Like what the fuck does any of this mean?
Then I hear if I have a proxy it might interfere with the reverse proxy and both might interfere with the VPN and vice versa.
that’s part of the issue! If you actually look at the trash guides you’ll see most of the guides just say “There is no special set up required.” and the rest of the page is blank.
That page you linked to shows how arrange your directory structure for hard links (but not how to mount the drive to match /mnt/ or, with exception of a single screenshot, how to configure the software to hardlink)
all of which were things that took me several hours to google, experiment and understand.
