I hope you don't mind me asking for info, but how beefy is the vps? I can't find minimum specs for these frontends, and that would help me know if I have enough spare power at home. I imagine you want all the bandwidth you can get, but are there cpu limitations?

Everything put together appears to be using 368 + 94 + 16 + 37 = 515MB of RAM while watching a video. I imagine you'd want some overhead (the backend is mostly Java) and this doesn't include the reverse proxy. Seems to use fairly low amounts of CPU. (My VPS is 5 Epyc cores and 9GB of RAM, so way beyond what it needs for this.)
