      I did Linux ISOs for a while, but the only ones getting my ratio up where kali and parrot. That scared me a little so i stopped (only seeded distros and didn’t use a vpn).

        I’m guessing the most common distros have regular people seeding a lot just on their PC in the background. Like me. Get your EndeavourOS while it’s hot people!

      Does the total time seeded mean how much combined time you’ve spent connecting to other people and uploading to them? Because that works out to about 1,000 years.

    I’m probably 90% Usenet nowadays and the rest is mostly public torrents but my monthly data usage is about 4TB down and a hair under 1TB up on average.

    I need to buy more HDDs.

        Currently just NZBGeek and NZBPlanet, I also get a fair bit of content from animetosho’s free usenet index.

        That NZBPlanet one is an API key I happened across on an unsecured sonarr instance I found in a random google search ages ago, sonarr and radarr used to put all of your details in obfuscated plaintext so you could just right click the obfuscated passwords and api keys and see what they were in the search google for “2f34fw” entry, that was fixed in more modern versions. Secure your shit guys. Pirates will pirate your piracy sources. if they update their keys I’ll lose it, but they seem really good so i’ll just pay for it if that happens.

    From my primary seedbox. This is probably my best ratio and upload total but I’m more proud of maintaining a decent ratio on higher downloads with more competitive trackers :)

      Seedboxes are typically a remotely hosted server in a strategically located datacentre, configured to provide users with a way to download and seed torrents more efficiently than at home.

      You can rent a seedbox from a bunch of companies (monthly cost, less effort), or you can even set one up at home (one-off cost, more effort).

      Here’s a list of seedbox companies to check out:

      • Bytesized Hosting €14.00 / Month
      • Dediseedbox $10.00 / Month
      • EvoSeedbox $5.00 / Month

        A bit more “home user friendly” explanation:

        Basically your home PC where you download “Linux ISOs”. But because you don’t like picking everything (movies/tv shows/etc, but not pc games) manually - you want to automate it.

        “Automate” is called Jellyfin/Plex and underlaying microservices, such as Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, QBittorrent, Bazarr and so on. You want this to be available 24/7 so it automatically adds content (movies/shows) to your “wishlist”, downloads when it becomes available and automatically appears in your Jellyfin/Plex server.

        This is why you usually dedicate a server for this, which runs 24/7, usually at home. And I guess you call it “seedbox”.

        Some other users set up VPN on their server, configure qbittorrent to use ONLY vpn connection (to avoid getting emails from their ISPs for pirated Linux ISOs lol) and call it “seedbox”. They first torrent anything to seedbox, then they download from it to their PC. In my case it’s not needed, since everything is automated and I access all my “Linux ISOs” from Jellyfin.
