Howdy maties, what seedbox providers do you use and what should be avoided when looking for one?
I want to get rid of my vps and get a dedicated seedbox, they seem to come nowadays with one click installs and the sorts, a vpn would be nice to have if needed, what do you look for when choosing a provider?
I have used whatbox for a while they’re amazing!
feralhosting.com gives you a full unix user in your own little jail if that’s your thing. They are for seedboxes, but you can do anything you want with your 1 vcore and unmetered 10gbps.
seedit4.me & rapidseedbox.com are both “reputable” enough in the space that you can’t go wrong.
Not rapidseedbox. I used them before and one time it removed my download saying DMCA violation. I unsub and change to fully self host my own seedbox on a dedicated machine with one provider.
DM me about this please
Sorry mate and all waiting for a show and some solid proofs. That happened in the second half of 2010s, and I do mailbox cleanup every year. I tried dig through what left but I think that violation notice is gone forever. Back then I was just a noob and though that’s normal for such big name provider, so I consider bad luck, and switch.
I’m just surprised they honoured the DMCA. It’s a seedbox lmao what were they thinking???
Me too.
I’ve used seedit4.me before, but they’re really expensive if you want any meaningful amount of storage on them.
seedhost.eu No bs/advertising with competitive price & performance.
Are recommendations against the rules?
Rules
- Posts must be related to the discussion of digital piracy
- Don’t request invites, trade, sell, or self-promote
- Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles, including DMs
- Don’t submit low-quality posts, be entitled, or harass others
No it’s not and they’re really easy to find plus there’s 4 simple rules
I dont know, are they?
They don’t seem to be, so ultra, gigarapid, whatbox etc. There’s plenty of lists online and on Reddit if you’d like to try something else
Depends a lot what you’re looking for in a seedbox. If you want to race then a lot of the options given are great. Personally I want storage capacity above most things and grabbed a dedicated server from Hetzner auctions. Today you’d be looking at 40TB gross storage for €60 a month. Been a long time since I’ve looked at setup options, swizzin was hot stuff then to give more of a “seedbox experience”
I had seedboxes.cc for a while. They were great, but a bit expensive. If I could do it over, I’d probably get ultra.cc. Currently, I’m looking at torbox.app, but they’re not exactly a seedbox.
just switched to ultra, can recommend
ultra.cc seems to have some good packages, will try this one, thank you
What’s the appeal of seedbox over using VPN? You can get a lot more storage with the money you spend on seedbox, right?
What reputable VPNs these days offer port forwarding? That’s a big part of what keeps me on a seedbox.
I thought protonVPN does, does it not?
It sure does
I’ve been happily using AirVPN. They let you have a static port. I tried ProtonVPN before and the dynamic port that is provided was way more frustrating to deal with
