Howdy maties, what seedbox providers do you use and what should be avoided when looking for one?

I want to get rid of my vps and get a dedicated seedbox, they seem to come nowadays with one click installs and the sorts, a vpn would be nice to have if needed, what do you look for when choosing a provider?

What's the appeal of seedbox over using VPN? You can get a lot more storage with the money you spend on seedbox, right?

What reputable VPNs these days offer port forwarding? That's a big part of what keeps me on a seedbox.

I thought protonVPN does, does it not?

I've been happily using AirVPN. They let you have a static port. I tried ProtonVPN before and the dynamic port that is provided was way more frustrating to deal with
