I built a NAT VPS for bots, VPNs and side projects. Looking for honest feedback

Hey everyone 👋

I’m Mohammad, and I built natbox.io: small Linux servers starting at $1/month.

A lot of what we run doesn’t need a full VPS with its own IPv4. A Discord bot, a personal WireGuard VPN, an Uptime Kuma monitor, a test box or a small API will all run fine on something much smaller and cheaper. So I built that.

What you get:

• Root SSH on Debian, Ubuntu, Alpine or AlmaLinux (Incus LXC)

• Your own block of forwarded IPv4 ports (TCP and UDP)

• A routed IPv6 /80

• Your own domains on ports 80 and 443

• One-click apps: WireGuard, Uptime Kuma, code-server and Minecraft

What you don’t get:

• A dedicated IPv4 address (it’s shared, which is how the price stays at $1)

• Docker

• Outbound mail on ports 25, 465 and 587

• Managed backups

Trying it:

• 🎁 A small server is free for a month while trial slots last

• 💸 Your first paid server has a 7-day money-back guarantee

• Pay with crypto or PayPal

What I’d love from you:

1. What would you run on a $1 box?

2. Is there a feature that’s missing for you, or something that’s a dealbreaker?

3. If you try it, a review on Product Hunt would help a lot: https://www.producthunt.com/products/natbox-io/reviews/new

I’ll be in the comments answering every question. Roast it, praise it, or tell me what to build next 🙏
