I, too, am a seeder.
For how long are you doing this and what’s your upload speed?
I think you’ve won, great work!
I’m lucky to be in a position to do that, a few years ago I would’ve dreamt of reaching what most shared here
Dang
I think I just busted a nut
FBI, open up!
Jk. Thank you for your service
All Linux iso’s, right?
Kings, Queens, and in-betweens, we have found our new emperor. Blesséd be the giga-chad @twiked@sh.itjust.works
I’m blessed by cheap and fast french internet. Still need a VPN though.
My most uploaded file is a copy of Shrek 2 with Latin American Spanish dub, it took me over a month to download. I swear to God the only one seeding it was someone who would just open their client, download whatever they were looking for, then shut it off. It’s the only copy of that dub I could find in decent quality. Now I’m at ~50 ratio for that file.
If you can only find 0 seed torrents just chuck it in your client anyway, I’ve had several actually complete.
This is great advice. It’s easy to get disheartened with a spinning torrent, but heroes like you can turn that around.
I’ve once had to bring up my ratio on a (now defunct) private torrent site in orde to download new torrents. I was looking for high leech low seed torrents, and I am ashamed to say I’ve seeded over 500 GB of granny porn (like 20gb original size). Brought up my ratio, tho.

My upload ratio looks like ass because I edit videos for a thing with friends, and we use torrent to send the raw footage between computers. So I have like a 0.2 ratio because I’m downloading 5 gigs and then we kill the torrent.
Interesting use case
It’s strange that people know how to create and share torrents but not open a port or install an FTP server.
just checked mine i didn’t think i was that high but i generally just leave it running all day

Welcome aboard!
Arrr!

I actually didn’t post my highest ratio, I didn’t want to seem like a braggart
You’re not a braggart, you’re a goddamned hero 🫡
It’d be more interesting to see the “Real Uploaded” and “Real Downloaded” stats for this profile. The “Uploaded” stat can be padded by using bonus points, and the “Downloaded” stat does not include freeleech.
That is also why I didn’t post this proof originally. The real numbers for this one are less impressive.
Real Uploaded 1.162 TiB
Real Downloaded 744.29 GiB
Real share ratio 1.599
Thanks for posting your numbers! An >1.5 ratio is still great. For example I’m below 1 as I don’t really get any upload on most things. They just don’t seem to get snatched much.
Do you seed many audiobooks or mainly ebooks? I guess the former given your large amount of data downloaded.
Arr!
Thanks for making up for my shortcomings <3
Nice. I just got above 2 for my ratio. I don’t have symmetric internet, but I have my torrents set up to never stop, and I don’t delete.
God I wish I had symmetrical upload. Gigabit down and like, 125mbps up.
Not so much for this but I self host stuff like my photos and I notice it’s slower when scrolling my photos outside the house. And using my personal VPN, makes my download limited to my upload speed.
The democracy and equality humans need, but don’t deserve.
I would absolutely be a seeder if my router didn’t reset itself in the middle of the night. That, and I’d be worried about getting caught by my ISP, even with my VPN.
Regardless, these people are the real heroes.
Add airflow to your router, common issue for overheating routers. May need to move it out into open, out of a closet or whatever.
If your ISP hasnt sent you a letter yet then try something much more tracked like GoT and if you dont get one after a week then you should be fine.
Pretty sure it’s programmed to reset at night from the ISP themselves, so not much luck there.
Also I have in the past for emails, but that was before I got my VPN subscription. Nothing since then, but I ain’t chancing it.
I never use router from ISP, I use my own. Most routers from ISP are awful.
I don’t have a choice as there is almost no way I could convince my parents that using a 3rd party router would be the way to go. Especially trying to convince my dad, who once got pissed off because I wanted the password for the old family computer to remove a browser extension that was probably malicious.
I’d set up a 3rd party router by snaking an Ethernet cable to my room, but I’m not confident enough to change and keep up on router settings to keep me safer. Let alone updating the router if I go the route of a 3rd party nos, which I’d probably try.
In the future if you are able to get your own router opensense is a great firmware for it. Also check out selfhosted you will learn alot from there.
I think you mean opnsense. I’m currently using openwrt with tailscale and adguard installed which is a pretty good option as well.
