A few months ago I grabbed this torrent from rarbg, and it took weeks to download. Often going days with no seeders.
I finally got it, and decided I'd seed beyond my usual 2x to help others get this. Then rarbg went under, and now I think I'll just keep this one going.
Plenty of seeders on private trackers
And Usenet!
too many 😭
I rather just stick to Real-Debrid, and never worry about seeds nor seeding ever again. Cached torrents are the future!
Since Real-Debrid has a copy of the torrent's data, does it do any seeding?
Not as far as I'm aware, but the way I justify it is that the more people who are using a Debrid service, the less strain it puts on torrents because of fewer leechers. Real-Debrid only needs to download the file once, and then every subscriber has immediate access to it.
You can always just use a seedbox instead. The main reason why I use Debrid is because it allows me to stream any show or movie I want instantly to my TV, without having to wait, the instant downloads for games & software is just an added bonus. So for me it's worth the tradeoff of not being able to do my rightful duty and seed.
The only time I seed, really. If there's only like 2 or 3 seeders and they have shit connections, I'll seed for a while. Not that my upload speed is any good...
But on a thing with thousands of seeders and maybe 20 leeches? Why? 🤷🏻♂️
I want to seed too, but I can't get anyone to receive it
The oldest active torrent I know of is the fanimatrix. I'm still seeding it just in case.
Yay.
Sometimes certain debried like Alldebried might be able to get you the torrent without any seeding p2p.
But they might be a paid service so that's up to you.
That chance is so low that you might even safe money just buying what you're looking for
Only if it’s still cached on their servers. If the torrent has zero seeders and it’s not cached even the debrid sites can’t complete the download on their side.
