For me it’s YIFY versions of older movies
1 is my goal, though I think I might have reached 2 once. Because shitty ADSL 😭
My very grateful thanks to people who can afford to do more.

One small old book that used to be hard to find in good quality. I’ve it seeding for years, and being so small and in risk of being lost I’ve never taken it down.
It’s JAV lol
~50x
My policy is double my download, minimum. But I almost always hit much higher than that, my average is probably between 5-10x
All my torrents are public sites, and I only torrent pretty common stuff, so I don’t feel too bad about killing a torrent after a week or two. I figure 5-10x average on easy-to-find, mid quality media is plenty in the karmic sense lol.
As far as I am concerned, always give better than you get, even if that’s 1.01 but try to aim higher.
Of course, if you’re seeding a rare or otherwise hard to find piece of media, then you should keep it alive for longer. I am in the process of upgrading my torrent machine, and once that happens, I will be able to hold far more active torrents, and my average ratios will be significantly improved.
Happy sailing!
Worst pirate ever, but also the best kind of person!
I see a lot of older Linux distros in this thread, why do that many people download them?
A lot of legacy stuff that’s really expensive and time consuming to upgrade. If it ain’t broken (and protected from the internet), don’t fix it.
Geez. I seed until I upload twice what I downloaded. Am I a stingy bastard?
Just checked, it’s a Ubuntu ISO
1904.21
It is lovely to see so many people training their AIs
are you seeding AI datasets?
Pirating to train AIs is legal†.
† in some jurisdictions only; you may need to be a rich corporation for that to apply.
Probably books lol
I’ve had about 1000 ratio on linux mint xfce, version 22.0 iirc
I’m coming up on 10000 for linux mint that I started nearly 300 days ago. 2.7GiB download, 24.8TiB upload.
My next highest is GIMP 3.0 at a little over 400.
Yeah I was gonna say I think I have like a 2000 ratio for Ubuntu 24.04 desktop, server, and some 3rd one that I’ve been seeding since it came out.
What torrent client is in the screenshot?
Tixati.
I use it mostly because it has a lot more options and flexibility, and also just because i’m already using it and it’s a pain in the ass to switch

Weekly Famitsu 1993 Complete - 141I tend to stop torrents when they hit 1000, I feel like that’s a “good enough” contribution on public stuff, except when I notice less than 100 seeders, then I tend to keep it going.
Top 58 I guess. Especially proud of the 800+ ratio on a 78 GB one (78*800≈61TB).
I think I once had 20 seed ratio on the tv series Psych. Haven’t seeded since my vpn got all wonky on me, I’ll start again for sure.
I have one or two YIFY movies that I haven’t been able to find on multiple private trackers (that usually cover all my needs) and the seed ratio is over 1,000 (since early 2021).
Public torrents of course get a lot of action (even relatively niche content).
“Trainwreck - Poop Cruise” is my current #1 ratio.
I usually delete after watching so this is just among recent downloads.
