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,
- Their app selection feels small though I’ve found most of the mainstream stuff.
- I’m missing things like cross-seed, jellystat, jellyfin-vue, transmission and audiobookshelf.
- Not happy with how apps installed by the GitHub scripts are not available on HTTPS.
- Can’t disable ssh password login for public key, which is making me really uncomfortable.
- Their wiki seems quite sparse.
The other options I’m thinking of are:
- 13$ HDD plan at seedhost.eu - 4TB/9TB but only 1gbps, downgrade in specs but seems to have more apps.
- 14$ plan at ultra.cc with 3TB/8TB but 20gps (which feels like an overkill honestly). Also a downgrade but their wiki/app support looks top notch.
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 :)
Ok.
I don’t know much about the differences between RD and AD but I don’t think AD is really enforcing the IP limitations. Or maybe only on streaming.
I have shared “debrided” links to a friend a few days ago and it didn’t seem to be an issue.
Let me check out the ToS of AD. Thanks for the heads up. On RD if I log into my partner’s account who lives in a different place, she gets logged out and vice versa.
