For those asking “private trackers what’s that?”

/r/trackers (on the bad site I know) has a lot of info

For those who may be interested in getting into private trackers, you should start with Myanonamouse.net in my opinion. They do an interview on the irc which is easy and you can join that way https://www.myanonamouse.net/inviteapp.php

It is a tracker for ebooks/audiobooks/comics that is easy to maintain a ratio on (via their generous bonus point system) as long as you are a decent seeder.

Once you’re on the site for a few months you can access the invite forum which can get you access to other private trackers. Think of it like a ladder.

Torrentleech (a general private tracker) occasionally has open signups throughout the year.

Of course he didn’t. He can’t read

lol

Elon the "Tech bruh" left a period in front of twitter so the redirect is broken - lmfao you can't make this shit up.

Awesome! Loving the app ecosystem on Lemmy. Choices for all!

They don't. Only shitty trackers. Every tracker I use has zero ads. A thing called private trackers exist. Every good torrent site has zero ads.

If you can't get in a private tracker and don't want ads, usenet is better than public trackers anyways.

Private trackers >/= usenet > public trackers

Yeah it's just the PWA packaged in an actual app. Still same thing though

Esketit fediverse let’s gooooo

Then that just means everything you’re looking for is common or freshly released/uploaded.

Ppl looking for niche content, it’s not gonna be on public trackers as often.

Also the main benefit of private vs Public is that you can find a 10-15 year old torrent of some niche content and it will still be actively seeded.

With public trackers, there is less retention of seeders, even more so for less common content.

Public trackers often end up with tons of dead torrents with 0-1 seeders after a couple years pass.

And on a private tracker there is incentive to keep old torrents alive. On public there is none. Ppl grab and run.

I didn’t say anything about that and don’t disagree but private trackers definitely have less of it due to their content having more scrutiny and standards.

Nothing is perfect. My comment only strived to let people know about private trackers as I saw multiple people ask about it.

Just defederated from those losers on my instance.

Also posting from my own instance! Lemmy verse let’s gooooo

Is e-mail working properly for you?

A blast from the past. Totally forgot about it existing until this post.

personally, I stopped bothering to make an effort to date because modern dating culture is trash and honestly really depressing.

Nice! Just updated my own self-hosted instance, went super smooth and quick.

i did the same thing using fastmail but the emails either come not at all or super delayed, would you mind sharing your provider?

Invite only torrent sites.

Retention and availability of seeders is higher.

You have to seed each torrent for a certain period of time at minimum (usually a week or so) and maintain a good overall upload/download ratio total (1.0 +)

Lmao some crypto bro was lurking and downvoted this whole comment chain. 😂

Didn’t realize it was still actively developed

the terminal

some private trackers economies are easier than others and let you benefit off seed TIME rather than upload amount, so as long as you actively seed you still can gain points to gather buffer, etc. So yes it is possible.

Also depends on your internet speeds. I don't use a seedbox and have done just fine, though I've had the luck of having had 300 mbps -> 500 mbps -> gigabit ethernet within the last 5 years.

Indigenous peoples have acknowledged a “third gender” aka non binary for centuries - way before colonization.

How can you say self identifying in regards to sex/gender is a recent ideology when it’s been part of human history for centuries?

Sounds like bland, generic, thoughtless conservative nonsense to eliminate other perspectives (especially when you discount them as new despite existing for centuries)

Gigabit fiber at $75 a month here. I would hate to be sub 100 mbps in 2023

50% monopolies are bad, by using any chrome based browser you're contributing to googles ability to monopolize the web. 50% because it's for cringe cypto-edgelords and that nonsense, all from a Tech Bro ousted at mozilla for being homophobic.

Agreed, that or they’re sub 80 IQ

I’m not nor was I angry, just being honest.

If you use brave or any chromium browser you’re both an idiot and part of the problem.

Anytime someone proudly says they use brave, I know they’re an idiot and not credible on anything tech related
