Geez. I seed until I upload twice what I downloaded. Am I a stingy bastard?

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?

Just checked, it's a Ubuntu ISO

1904.21

Picture of qBitTorrent app showing the torrents sorted by ratio, with Ubuntu live server iso in first place with 1904 ratio

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 (78*800≈61TB).

What torrent client is in the screenshot?

[-] [email protected] 10 points 5 hours ago

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

It is lovely to see so many people training their AIs

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

are you seeding AI datasets?

[-] [email protected] 12 points 6 hours ago

I've had about 1000 ratio on linux mint xfce, version 22.0 iirc

[-] [email protected] 3 points 5 hours ago

Yeah I was gonna say I think I have like a 2000 ratio for Ubuntu 24.04 desktop, server, and some 3rd one that I’ve been seeding since it came out.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

"Trainwreck - Poop Cruise" is my current #1 ratio.

I usually delete after watching so this is just among recent downloads.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 7 hours ago

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.

0 because no port forwarding

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

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

[-] [email protected] 7 points 5 hours ago

I had gotten 100+ without port forwarding. Port forwarding is overrated, seeding time and popularity of torrent is what really matters.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

I would get about 20x to 50x more up traffic with a forwarded port and no IPv6, as opposed to no forwarded port and IPv6.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

not overrated. at least one side needs to be open.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

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..

[-] [email protected] 5 points 7 hours ago

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).
