      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).

    23.79 TB uploaded 2.32 TB Downloaded 10.273 ratio

    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 :)

    Looking at my stats on a tracker, I’m almost at the peta uploaded with ~200 TiB down, so I guess a 5:1 ratio. I had no idea but now I’m going to look and screenshot this milestone once I hit the PiB!

    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.

    I’m a regular 1:1 overall casual user. I’ve both seeded generously and leeched precariously over the years, but i can safely say i’ve given as much as i took.

      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
      • Feral Hosting £10.00 / Month
      • Giga-Rapid €0.99 / Month
      • HostingByDesign €6.59 / Month
      • RapidSeedboxes €8.00 / Month
      • SonicBit $2.15 / Month
      • The Seedbox €10.76 / Month
      • Seedhost €6.00 / Month
      • Seedit4.me €11.99 / Month
      • Seedmonster $9.99 / Month
      • Swizzin $15.95 / 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.

    My main tracker has me at a 1.5. I’m really proud of that because I hardly download freelech and seeding is required so it’s damn hard to get a decent upload.
