I have been looking at this today. Both Google Cloud and DigitalOcean.
And i also looked at some setup videos.
But it does seem very hard to even start a pool (tech wise) i’m no coder and never used Linux. And i might be to old to learn. I have been talking with a younger brother to run one because he is a coder/gamer. But he is not that interested. Not even interested enough to learn all you need to learn just to help me set it up.
I would like to see more “plug and play” or i mean a way to just simple install a program that has everything you need and an nice interface to just put in some numbers and boom your done.
Or a Synology application, that i have been posting about here: Synology pool package to be able to run a pool in a simple way
