A few months ago I grabbed this torrent from rarbg, and it took weeks to download. Often going days with no seeders.

I finally got it, and decided I'd seed beyond my usual 2x to help others get this. Then rarbg went under, and now I think I'll just keep this one going.

Had that with a few movies recently which took about a week to download. I removed my limits for those, I'm only at a ratio of 5 or smth on those tho. Still, it's honest work

The only torrent I ever removed my seed cap for was a set of DVD-audio ISOs. I had it downloading for months, but it never got above 5%. Eventually I found the same disc images on another site, so I dropped them in the download folder and rechecked the torrent, which came back 97% complete. The only files missing were box art scans and NFOs. I let that thing seed for about five months.

I rather just stick to Real-Debrid, and never worry about seeds nor seeding ever again. Cached torrents are the future!

Since Real-Debrid has a copy of the torrent's data, does it do any seeding?

I want to seed too, but I can't get anyone to receive it

What client is that you're using here? UI seems nice

[–] OrangeXarot@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm gonna say... Transmission, but I'm not sure

[–] Epsilon@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Looks like the Transmission web-ui

[–] monty@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Plenty of seeders on private trackers

[–] JBloodthorn@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Good for them.

Yay.

Sometimes certain debried like Alldebried might be able to get you the torrent without any seeding p2p.

But they might be a paid service so that's up to you.

[–] Contend6248@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

That chance is so low that you might even safe money just buying what you're looking for

The oldest active torrent I know of is the fanimatrix. I'm still seeding it just in case.
