Maybe I try to host bad software, maybe I am just bad at computing but at this point I feel like I'm getting too old to constantly debug various issues. I just want certain things to work and I'm willing to pay the price for it 😮‍💨

I’ll never host my own DNS, Email or torrents.

Everything else yes.

    Why not torrents over a VPN, if you have bandwidth to burn?

    I trust my VPS provider more than a VPN. And I want a VPN primarily for privacy, not massive p2p bandwidth or the ability to circumvent geographical restrictions.

    Also my seedbox can run 24/7 with the bandwidth capped and it doesn’t have any effect on my life.

    If my home internet is uploading at full speed, streaming services start to stutter and that’s annoying.
