Also, don‘t use it for any mail servers. Spam Assassin gives a negative score by default on *.xyz domains. Stupid as shit, but I had to learn the hard way.

I would not even hate this idea. To be honest, I would even think about buying one. I switched to Linux a year ago, while having Windows as dual boot option. I only used Windows for one game, which had a nasty Anti Cheat back then. Nowadays it is working on Linux. So I have no reason to use Windows anymore. And as I love Valve since the early days, I always try to get my hands on their products.
Signal has many half-baked things. Like the backup/restore system
My HA is running in docker. It is easier than you might think. Forget about LXC. And just take your time migrating the stuff and only when the service works in docker, you can shut off the VM. Believe me, management of docker is way easier than 5 VM‘s with different OS‘s. Docker Compose is beautiful and easy.
If you need help, just message me, I might be able to give you a kickstart
I was assuming you were able to get rid of the other 5 VM‘s by doing so. If not, obviously you would have not less overhead.
Add a new VM, install docker-ce on it and slowly migrate all the other containers/vm‘s to docker. End result is way less overhead, way less complexity and way better sleep.
Don‘t forget that the copyright law is a civil law, so there needs to be someone being able to proof to have suffered from any damages. Having a law case within a border is usually much cheaper to having one internationally, because every country has a different law system and you need a lot more lawyers, just to then find out there was no damage. So the risk of paying a lot of law fees without getting any damages covered is just too high. Obviously, it makes sense that big studios will try to hunt down big trackers, but I think even with my 25/25Gbit I am far away of being an interesting target, especially on an international level. At least this is how my view on this is.
Thanks for the heads up. I am well aware of this. Obviously I would try not to get too much attention and would probably block all Swiss clients from accessing my server. Having legal issues internationally at that scale without any money involved is unlikely. But that‘s just my hypothesis.
Edit: only because I‘m a pirate does not mean I have no moral values. I would never want to distribute heavily illegal content. Only copyrighted content.
I had to start somewhere, I think everyone is able to understand that. I was not even asking for specific invites, just in general. Maybe there is someone trying to run a new private tracker and is in need of seeding power. Without asking, I would never know.
Glad to hear that bandwidth is no issue anymore. Then I use my bandwidth for something else :)
I just checked and only for the cheaper subscription they use CGNAT. So I will not be affected by it.
Thanks for this very helpful response. The way you describe it makes absolutely sense and I will use this as a guide in the future.
Yep, I know, that‘s why I was looking for people who are the owners of the trackers and just need someone with decent bandwidth. Other than that it is just a game of patience.
Yeah, I will keep on using usenet and just would use torrent as a supplement or additional source. Mainly only interested in movies/shows and games. But to be honest, I don‘t mind seeding other stuff for a couple of weeks, but will eventually have to delete it to save some space for the things I really want.
Maybe there are some screenshots on some old IDE drives or chatlogs of IRC, but I‘d have to invest a lot of time with low chances of finding something useful. So please, don’t trust me blindly. I know that trust has to be built first and that private communities can be fragile at times. So your questions are very valid and relatable :)
Sorry, forgot to mention the period. It is per year.
Oh I‘m not inexperienced in that area, so I absolutely know what you mean. I just kind of lost the connection to that scene.
Very true. Currently I‘m only at about 45TB of space, but could extend it fairly easily to 198TB or more.
In Switzerland, the ISP Init7 is offering all their connections for CHF 777.- (USD 861.-) per year and you just get the maximum speed, which is currently 25/25Gbps. This provider is well known for fighting for net neutrality and being against any censorships or mass surveillance. I just love them very much and wish that other countries would have such awesome ISP‘s as well.
Agree. I just got it for fun and because it was cheap. I used it for my disposable e-mail addresses but now switched to .org
