noob question

[Drewyboyo]

Noob question, just see lots of different people saying what you need for what and I'm confused.

Pros of VPN?

Pros of VPS?

When do you use VPN?

When do you use VPS?

 

[MattchuPichu]

pros vps = essentially another computer.

Pro VPN?! not sure idk why you wouldn't just buy proxies

[YoHoJo]

I'd say most people actually prefer to use a proxy or VPS, rather than a VPN.
Typically a VPN will randomly assign you an IP at random, whereas a VPS/Proxy is a fixed IP.

VPS is a Virtual Private Server. It's a remote computer you can run your bots on without using your own computers resources, and has it's own IP address.
Proxies allow you to run your bots through an IP address other than your home IP address.

So i just start osbot there. Close my computer and it continues botting?

[ Is it possible to check by phone and interact with the vps by phone? ]

And you can make it automatic to switch certain accounts etc. ( if you know how ) but its possible right?
