Hey,

I’m looking for suggestions on how to efficiently transfer content to my Oracle Cloud VPS.

What I’ve Tried:

Telegram Bot: I set up a Telegram bot that saves files locally on the server.

Pros: Easy to use, quick access to files from Telegram.

Cons: Limited to what’s available on Telegram, and uploading is slow and impractical.

aria2c: I attempted to use aria2c but couldn’t get it to work properly. Is it possible that Oracle Cloud is blocking P2P communication like torrents?

What I Need:

A more convenient method to transfer content to my VPS. I haven’t been able to get torrents to work, so any alternative solutions would be appreciated. Additionally, if you know of any direct download sites for content like movies and shows that don’t use P2P, that would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: while there are plenty of ways to get stuff from my computer to the VPS (and I’ll try some of them), I thought to get things directly to the VPS. it has fast and stable internet connection, unlike my laptop.

    If you’re thinking specifically of torrents, then a seedbox or torrents are probably more your speed. I forgot which community I was in for a second.

    As far as large files go, I feel you. I have a NAS at home that I share with friends but my residential internet upload speed is slow. What I’ve ended up doing is opening a Storj account and mirroring the NAS to it. Not sure if this is relevant (at all).

    Maybe someone else can comment here, but there’s got to be some dead simple web interface you could host where you copy/paste a URL and it downloads it… maybe just wget or curl from the host instance?
