  • Leaseweb vs other providers
    Unfortunately, if you install a GUI, you will have to pipe it through a webserver. Something like guacamole. For a headless and people not well versed in command line, swizzin is normally the go to. You install Debian, then access the command line, and then run the swizzin script to set it up. It adds a GUI for everything. Source: 10 months ago
  • Seedbox Recommendation - €70, 64Tb+ Storage/ Plex
    There is currently a Hetzner auction dedi with 4x16TB drives for €70. AFAIK, Hetzner would be the cheapest storage option, so even though it's not 70TB, at that price point you're pretty much stuck. You can rent one and install Saltbox or Swizzin yourself, it's pretty easy. Source: 11 months ago
  • What it looks like to host a completely automated *arr Suite
    PS: btw swizzin is really cool and easy to use to install and manage seedbox. Source: 12 months ago
  • Is there a good guide or prebuilt setup to install media server like Jellyfine, Sabnzbd, Qbittorrent ect on a ProxMox server?
    There are lots of scripts that will install the software for you automatically. Swizzin is pretty popular, and I use it when I need something spun up quickly. Just create an LXC with debian or ubuntu and swizzin will do the rest. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Reccomendation People dont seem to notice the megathread, so i post this here too, mainly just out of curiosity.
    Then you can fullfill your requirements. See swizzin.ltd site. Source: about 1 year ago
