Hello!

I'm currently based in EU but am planning to go to eastern europe contry to visit my familiy and vacation. I always wanted to seed 24/7 but the electricity bills, plus many other stuff doesn't allow me to host a server here.

I'm thinking to during my time in that country to build a small compact seeder server. Any reccomendations? I'm planning as to not use VPN on the server as I don't think it will be needed.

My plan is to use an old computer with about 10 tbs of storage attached to it. All parts will be used as to not blow my budget.

Any reccomendations as how should I safely access that server and through what programm?(preferably free or non subscribtion based)?

Also any critique of the idea or any other reccomendations for the project?

Cloudflare Tunnel (free)

You can proxy http traffic thru it (very good for that), and it has a way to use ssh thru your browser but not sure how good that is. You would still probably want a backup way to access it too
