I’m planning to make a seedbox with AirVPN running 24/7 on a Pi. I’ve been a big leecher for a while now and I want to give back to the community. Fuck streaming services, if I can’t own the product after I bought then it’s not worth buying.
If you already have a Linux/BSD server, say Nextcloud, HomeAssistant, etc, you could just use a container instead of a Pi.
I don’t own a server yet, that’s why I’m planning to get a Pi to get the seedbox running and do some other fun projects.
Much as I love Pis and ARM, unless you are doing something with GPIOs/hardware, you might be better off getting a second hand thin client PC, like a Dell Wyse.
Dont use VPNs where you provide personal information as ISPs and law enforcement can and do request data from those VPN services. Use something like Mullvad (and pay with XMR if you are paranoid :)
I already use Mullvad, but I doesn’t allow portforwarding anymore, sadly. So my uploads speeds are pitiful. As much as I enjoy Mullvad’s simplicity when it comes to accounts, I’ll have to pass. The point of the seedbox is to make the files that I download widely available. I don’t download a whole lot, and it’s usually files with very few seeders. It’s often stuff that you can’t find on streaming sites.
