For me it’s YIFY versions of older movies
i had more but qbittorrent reset on me :( i always feel bad about stopping seeding cause ppl might need them :3
I think I once had 20 seed ratio on the tv series Psych. Haven’t seeded since my vpn got all wonky on me, I’ll start again for sure.
It is lovely to see so many people training their AIs
are you seeding AI datasets?
Probably books lol
Pirating to train AIs is legal†.
† in some jurisdictions only; you may need to be a rich corporation for that to apply.
Geez. I seed until I upload twice what I downloaded. Am I a stingy bastard?
If you gotta make space then you gotta make space. If it’s relatively popular things then there’s always gonna be someone

I have one or two YIFY movies that I haven’t been able to find on multiple private trackers (that usually cover all my needs) and the seed ratio is over 1,000 (since early 2021).
Public torrents of course get a lot of action (even relatively niche content).
4741
One small old book that used to be hard to find in good quality. I’ve it seeding for years, and being so small and in risk of being lost I’ve never taken it down.
Out of curiosity, which book?
I have no mouth and I must scream.
It was originally published as part of a book compilation, and it was kind of hard to find a file with just that story and without typos all over the place.
I tend to stop torrents when they hit 1000, I feel like that’s a “good enough” contribution on public stuff, except when I notice less than 100 seeders, then I tend to keep it going.
Top 58 I guess. Especially proud of the 800+ ratio on a 78 GB one.
What torrent client is in the screenshot?
Tixati.
I use it mostly because it has a lot more options and flexibility, and also just because i’m already using it and it’s a pain in the ass to switch
Worst pirate ever, but also the best kind of person!
I see a lot of older Linux distros in this thread, why do that many people download them?
A lot of legacy stuff that’s really expensive and time consuming to upgrade. If it ain’t broken (and protected from the internet), don’t fix it.
I remember using Cent OS (dual booting it alongside Debian) multiple years back. I think it had more or less feature parity with RHEL then and meant for personal use case unlike RHEL.
Too bad it was discontinued. I think the closest fork of it is Rocky Linux.
I’m on VPN so my highest is like 6.
I’m got a 100Mbps upload but nobody wants it through a VPN. 😢
I feel so tiny next to some of the big numbers in here. My top ratio is 11.64x with 1.3TB up. But the current setup has only been up for two months.
Time is essential, a high seed ratio is indication of time spent seeding more than anything else
My all time ratio is not that high (101.8), but I have seeded an average of 1.124 TiB per day for the last three years on with my home server. All my devices included, I average 1.7 TiB per day
Size or uploaded?
What do you mean? Vast majority of it is seeded via torrents, a small part shared through soulseek
0 because no port forwarding
I had gotten 100+ without port forwarding. Port forwarding is overrated, seeding time and popularity of torrent is what really matters.
as soon as a download finishes, upload drops to 0 and it never sends a single byte even if i keep it seeding for a week. thought that was a port forwarding issue…
idk I don’t port forward and have 10+ ratios regularly
Because you’re able to connect to people who have port forwarding set up. Meanwhile, anyone like yourself without it is unable to connect to you.
I know. I never said otherwise. I’m responding to someone who said they can’t seed at all without port forwarding.
not overrated. at least one side needs to be open.
If you’re willing to take the time to learn a bit of podman/docker, you should check out my recent post on I2P torrenting. There’s no problems with port forwarding on the I2P network. There are other ways to torrent over I2P without podman/docker too, you’ll just have to research them yourself
definitely will set that up once i build or buy a server pc. I’ve been postponing that for a year or so because school and new job have been pretty demanding mentally
is i2p torrent actually usable? last time i tried i2p itself was extremely slow and there was basically nothing to download, nobody seeding…
I can get 1 MB/s, but honestly 200 KB/s is fast enough for me, I just wait a few hours to torrent an entire show. In terms of content most of the show I want to watch are uploaded to Postman tracker
It’s JAV lol
Same lol, this is MIDV-120, Found this at 1 seed with 100 KiB/s upload speed, I think it’s safe to say I single handedly revived this torrent.
