There are some niche private trackers which have an active community that handle quality and requests. Also they don’t let just anyone create a torrent, so you can have assurances that the files have been vetted to some extent and you’re not going to download something unexpected.
Most private trackers have some sort of bonus point system now where you earn points per hour of seeding per torrent, regardless of how much data you actually upload. You can then use those points to buy upload credit and raise your ratio
Nothing “almost” about it. Retail drives are available right now at 30tb. Although, the more reasonable price/GB is at around 8tb with occasional outliers.
I have now a ratio of 9.1 and 250TB of uploaded…
Also my hard drive is getting full. I guess I have to clean up some torrents soon.
Or buy new storage
Thank you for your service.
Buy more storage, but also… join private trackers when they open signups. You’d be amazing there.
I never really understood private trackers TBH or rather the reason behind them. I like the idea of publicly sharing more anyway

The advantage of private trackers is that:
Public tracker: You are the hero, getting a 30:1 upload ratio in a mere 30 days. “Wow, this shit is easy!”
Private tracker: “Please… can this torrent even reach 10% upload? It’s been an ENTIRE YEAR! I have 500 torrents in the same state!”

They have to. It’s a requirement, or everybody would quit in protest.
that’s a minimum of 27TB of storage, what kind of monster is your computer?
Thats really not that big in terms of a NAS. Some crazy fuckers on reddit had literal PETABYTES of storage.
HDDs are getting massive. You could almost store all that on a single drive right now.

Yeah i knew they were coming but last I saw they’d only released them in the mid 20TB range and was too lazy to look it up.
coughs in 50TB
Buy more storage. Cheers. Awesome ratio.
