Hi I just joined my first private tracker (torrentleech). I found something in the wish list which I have. I’d like to seed it to start out on a good foot. Are there any good guides on that? I’ve tried in the past and utterly failed, I’m hoping it’s easier to start a seed on a private tracker?

    200gb of upload is a LOT for a private tracker! I’ve got a couple where I’ve been seeding dozens of torrents for MONTHS and I still haven’t cracked 200gb upload.

      Use autodl-irssi or autobrr to grab some free leech torrents as soon as they are uploaded. You will hit 200GB in a few hours if you have a decent upload speed and have port forwarding set correctly.

        Yeah but then I have to host a bunch of content that I’m not using on my Jellyfin server, and thats a whole mess to untangle in qbit. I appreciate the suggestion, though!
