Hi. I am currently pirating on a dedicated server (Debian 12) running i2p, jellyfin, qBittorrent-nox, and a vpn. I tried mullvad for a bit but need to get air VPN set up now. My current setup to actually get content to jellyfin is this:

1. Try to find it on i2p, if there skip to step 4
2. SSH into server and turn on vpn + qBittorrent
3. Torrent Linux ISOs
4. SSH again and copy the file into jellyfin (really space inefficient, would love a solution to this in particular without shitloads of symlinks.)
5. Rename files to work with jellyfin
6. Login to jellyfin and refresh libraries
7. If Linux ISO not on i2p, cross seed

Obviously this sucks. I know *arr would help, but I don’t know how to set up a VPN to not interfere with jellyfin connections to outside of LAN.

How would you go about automating this? Do you think I am a complete idiot going about it all wrong? (I know I do) Have any of you found a solution to vpns interfering with jellyfin?
