    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.

        I started using qbit about a year ago after using deluge. I have gb down and 100mb up.

        Unironically, a lot of that ratio is from Linux isos and other open source software distribution. Take the load off their servers!

        It’s strange that people know how to create and share torrents but not open a port or install an FTP server.

            I’m surprised none of the tech companies have a service that lets you share any size file from your own PC, and then slurp at it for their AI on the way through…

      Have you checked what is missing, sometimes people only pick the wanted files from a torrent, so maybe those 5% are just bloat nobody cared to seed as well.

    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.

    One time I found a KDrama that changed my life (Crash Landing on You), and to thank the producers, I set up a dedicated seedbox for years that did nothing but seed their show :). I think I hit like 7TB uploaded before shutting it off
