I think that depends on if the VPS charges incoming and outgoing external connections, some only charge outgoing. From VPS to browser would be outgoing, from your home instance to VPS would be incoming.
Thank you! It does seem like there are afforadable VPS options that don't limit traffic anyway, so I might as well start there.
Mind sharing which VPs those are?
For sure, I think Oracle has unlimited bandwidth even in it's free tier. Ionos is one that I was looking at, fairly cheap but also offers unlimited transfer
Sure.. i already have an oracle free tier that i use for NPM (though switching it to caddy) .. i'd be wary of trusting either of them for long term usage though...
I've definitely heard bad things about Oracle deleting people's machines without warning. Unfortunately I don't know anything about Ionos. I may go with Linode, their cheapest VPS at $5/month has a 1TB transfer limit, which I might stay under. But please let me know if you end up finding a decent option from a reliable company!
