Where are you seeing a VPS for $1/month that works well as a Jellyfin server for multiple people?

I have a VPS from RackNerd for something like $11.5/yr. You can check some offers from them here.

To be clear, it probably won't work well as a Jellyfin server since the storage and CPU capabilities aren't great. But it's pretty good as a relay, which is what I described above. I have a local machine, and I use the VPS to relay the connection to the open internet.

Still very cool, though. Thanks!

If you treat it as relay, then does it consume bandwidth on the VPS?

[–] SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, it does. Mine gives me 2TB/month of bandwidth, which is plenty for my use.
