With Netflix and other streaming platforms increasing price, I finally decided to get a seedbox for my family members’ needs with Plex/jellyfin.
My budget is 10-15 USD per month. I’m currently on the 11$ hostingby.design plan with 4TB storage and 9TB traffic, 10gbit connection. I’ve been mostly happy but,
The other options I’m thinking of are:
I really wish there was a way I could manage docker containers on my own on a similar shared setup without paying for a dedicated vps but haven’t found something like that so far.
Any advice regarding the other providers, experience or otherwise would be greatly appreciated :)
1. Posts must be related to the discussion of digital piracy
2. Don’t request invites, trade, sell, or self-promote
3. Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles, including DMs
4. Don’t submit low-quality posts, be entitled, or harass others
💰 Please help cover server costs.
Thank you :) This is quite helpful. With SSH but without root, are you able to install many things?
I’ve found Plex to be okay on the shared one because it’s hardly being used most of the time, at least on hbd.
I’m really tempted to try out seedhost for a month :)
yeah i mean you can download/upload binary files to the seefbox and run them
Sure, but you need the dependencies and libraries, and a way to manage them. There are few things that are just a standalone file.
yes if you need any non standard libs it wont work. but stand-alone binary files can be executed
I was sad when I couldn’t get ranger to work. I’m fine with just having vi and screen instead of vim and tmux, but I truly miss ranger.
i used gokcehan/lf and if i remember correctly it worked (as a compiled stand-alone binary).
Also mounting the seedbox with sshfs is super useful for me.
This is awesome :) I’m going to try this tomorrow.
