So just out of curiosity: if a lot of relays run on hardware of a single hosting company, that hosting company has access to many secret keys, which might be an interesting attack vector for an adversary.
Given that these nodes have a different administrator, MyFamily won't be set.
Does the relay selection algo take this into account in any way?

My experience is: This is the best hosting companyI ever had and I am doing this for over 20 years. I will not run an exit node and I am sure I will be fine.Btw, there are already alot of hight traffic non exit nodes running on feral.

PS: I am not working for feral and I am not a family member or any other connection :)

Hi Markus,
on your hint I was just checking feralhosting.com. They are quoting:
"We do not allow Tor exit nodes to be run on our servers. They're open invitations for trouble, and while Tor serves a useful purpose our network is not the place for it. Tor relays are fine provided they strictly only act as an intermediary.
We will make an exception to this rule if you bring your own RIPE IPs and handle abuse directly while taking full responsibility. "
Is this your experience as well?

Linux, would like to upgrade my accounts at feralhosting.com with tor nodes. It must be possible because there are a lot of TOR nodes on feral. No clue what kind of linux they are using but you are right, I needed root for my other 6 TOR servers and I am just wondering if there is a way around it, if not I just ask them to install it for me :)

Like a portable version so ?
Windows, Linux, which operating system are you using ?
On Linux world, I'm usually using Debian and as I know you will need a root access to the server. It will create a debian-tor group, write into the system...
Or if your user is in the "sudo" group, it can be ok.
On windows, I'm not sure if there's a portable version of Tor... portable = no need to install

possible or do I have to ask my hosting company for the install on a shared server?
