If you don't mind me asking, do you think it would be possible to keep a an account on a few of these chillest private trackers without a seedbox? The main reason I've been avoiding private trackers for years now is that from the way people talk, those are a necessity.
Things get downloaded in an orderly manner and seeded forever(in a much slower rate that I'd like but), it's just that Seedboxes are mostly a US and Europe run service and my country's currency can't handle that lol
some private trackers economies are easier than others and let you benefit off seed TIME rather than upload amount, so as long as you actively seed you still can gain points to gather buffer, etc. So yes it is possible.
Also depends on your internet speeds. I don't use a seedbox and have done just fine, though I've had the luck of having had 300 mbps -> 500 mbps -> gigabit ethernet within the last 5 years.
Thanks for answering me, my current Internet is very good overall with downloads, but slower with uploads, I'll figure that out and keep an eye on how the ratios of my current seeds are doing before doing anything. I'll also look into the ones with seeding time. Thanks again!
