Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

If you're on Android, there's nzb360. The dev is awesome.
But not FOSS like LS unfortunately
It's a bit pricey (and likely only going up in price with the upcoming licensing changes), but by far the best there is.
You lose a bit of functionality but you can use it for free
How does someone use something like this discreetly if its setup in the us?
What do you mean? The nzb360 app is just a front end for services you have running on a server somewhere. Are you asking how to run the backend part discreetly?
So, usually I run mulvad on my laptop before firing up qbtorrent, but how would something like this work? Is it just an app running on my phone where I still have to use mulvad?
This would just be a way for you to see what qbittorent is doing from your phone. In qbit you'd turn on a few settings and then point this app to what you just turned on, and then see what's downloading from your phone.
The app isn't doing anything beyond taking interpreting what your other programs (e.g., qbit, sonarr, radarr, etc) are doing while you're away. Depending on the program you could also tell it to download something, but that's all still happening on your laptop. Your phone is just the middle man.
The app points back to always on servers you have setup to automatically download media on their own.
It wont do anything for you if you fire up a torrent client and go download media manually.
