This sounds really promising! Is it unsafe to sftp download from the seedbox without VPN?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I use Syncthing with my Seedbox and use a VPN on my Debian VM running syncthing, then share the folder im syncing over smb on my local network. (I Use FeralHosting) This is just one of many ways to do it.

SFTP is fine but is like having a helmet on while racing but not using a seat belt.

Not really but I do notice that sometimes my ISP with throttle me and it stops when I use a VPN, so I just usually use a VPN (and never torrent local anymore, it's like waiting for a snail to deliver your amazon package).
