      You won't. I just wasted 4 hours try to setup a test node on a raspbian vm. The problem is you have to use linux, & linux is trash. I've been using computers since I was 4 & I can't wrap my head around this ridiculously complicated operating system. So many errors, no good beginner guides to linux, & an entire community which uses the command line as a crutch to their garbage user interface. I don't want to touch linux again for another 4 months until I end up inevitability giving it another chance only to get pissed again.
      I bet tons of people want to do this, but they won't because the process is impossible unless you're an advanced linux user.

    Tor's uptime is 1 day 18:00 hours, with 1635
    circuits open.
    I've sent 44.03 GB and received 43.47 GB.
    I've received 23182 connections on IPv4 and 4404 on IPv6.

    Should I be concerned about NAT when setting up a tor relay?

      You'll have to port forward (if you have a router at home which your PC goes through, for example). The configuration is different for each router so you'll have to search online how to do it for your specific router.

      If you can accept incoming connections in some way, then no problems. If not, then you can't run relay.

    Hey mental outlaw, youtube refuses to allow your videos to auto play for me. it only queues other videos, so you gotta keep up the good work man they are trying to silence you

    If I run a few of these, can I always use one of my own nodes as a first node in the chain? That sounds like a fairly good way to somewhat hide yourself from a KAT17 type of attack, unless I am missing something ofc.

    If i would like do this for the purpose of diluting malicious nodes would that be a good idea to run multiple nodes in vms on the same machine?

      This is what not said in this video. You need public IP. You can host only 2 nodes on the same IP. So no, it is not a good idea.

    I have a bunch of spare machines that can run relays and a bit of bandwith. Should I pop more relays with lower bandwith or less with higher one?

      If you have one internet connection, then it is better to run one node. But watch for resource consumption on machine. If it becomes overloaded (CPU, RAM), then you may want to add second relay to split the load. As far as I know, to make more than 2 relays, you need more public IP addresses.

      Probably more with less bandwith? To dilute the bad ones more. I'm justn noob tho.
