  • There are providers who are OK with public trackers and don't care about DMCAs.

    In principle, torrenting over IPv6 is the same as doing it over IPv4, it's just that there's a lot of IPv6 addresses so you might find it cheaper to buy IPv6. Yes there are some differences in the technology but from purely an operational POV, it's not very different.

    The reason I mentioned bringing your own IPs is related to the reason why providers don't like public torrents: it pollutes their IP space and puts their IP ranges on blacklists. But if you bring your own IPs, suddenly the provider (in theory) is safe and doesn't care as much. YMMV of course, send an email to your provider of choice to ask more.

  • I have seen seedboxes with 3, or maybe 4TB of storage under $10 (don't remember). And that's recent (about a month ago). Yes, unlimited uploads are definitely an issue. Such cases are best combated with buying an IPv6 slot and putting that on a VPS with a provider friendly to such things (they exist at reasonable prices)

  • I tend to seed rarer stuff till my ratio reaches 10, sometimes 15 on a case-by-case basis

  • Get an older Antec cade on Ebay, the one with 6 DVD bays. Load it up as a homeserver + seedbox + media burner.

  • Get a seedbox with storage. About $5-$10 a month can get you quite decent boxes in torrent friendly countries

  • What distro do you use for your servers?

    Jump

  • I guess you could use something like those new immutable distros to move away from state and related vulnerabilities. TBH there are plenty of hardening guides for Debian.

    Or you could use any hardened version of Fedora which gets security fixes quicker, and then harden it some more yourself. The good part about Debian is that you are free to use SysVInit, I do not know if you could do that on Fedora. I do not think Systemd is a massive risk (if they have reached Systemd you have many other, bigger problems to think of).

    I think I should study some more about Fedora. I run k3s on top and will go through their CISA hardening guide at some point to round things out.

  • Hmm, not bad. I care more about WLB than money so this is fine.

  • I have definitely read this answer before. I think we've probably already spoken on the matter. Indeed, Lemmy has a serious dearth of users interested and using secure distros over the averages. Thanks for your efforts; I do not know how to follow users on Lemmy but if I did I'd follow you. Do you have a blog/any other forum you're more active on?

    Personally, I find it difficult to justify the time to learn Secureblue (especially the immutable part) or NixOS on Qubes because custom DispVMs with curated salt states work so well already. I'm interested in use-cases that will improve my security but I haven't found any dialogue on this yet. If you do have opinions on this and know where I can look, I would greatly appreciate it!

  • I would be really interested in a comparison of Kicksecure and secureblue. I'm interested in running one of them myself
