That’s only with Sync. But the notes are just markdown, so you can also just use GitHub or whatever to sync them. They never need to hit Obsidian’s servers, and that’s actually the default because you have to pay for Sync.

That’s actually a big negative compared to Obsidian. It’s just a bunch of markdown files in a folder, so you can sync them using e.g. git and manage conflicts that way

How does this differ from Obsidian?

What’s an NPA?

Sure, the docs are pretty minimal though: https://wiki.servarr.com/prowlarr/settings (just click on Proxy)

Basically you can configure a proxy (from your VPN provider for example) for each indexer (or font add a tag to apply it to all of them), and queries to indexers will run through there. This avoids Sonarr making calls to TVDB or whatever through the VPN and getting blocked.

Trash guides say you shouldn’t run the *arr’s through a VPN because you’re likely to get blocked by metadata servers. I only run my download client through the VPN + also use gluetun’s HTTP proxy for Prowlarr’s indexers

LFS?

Use gluetun, look up how to configure for your provider. Run a 2nd container for your torrent client, using network_mode: “service:gluetun” to run all your traffic though the vpn. Note that if you’re forwarding ports from your client to e.g. access the web UI, you’ll need to forward them from the gluetun container instead.

What do you mean “when”? You can create a community on an existing instance right now, or you can run your own instance if you want! Just check out the docs.
