For me it’s YIFY versions of older movies

    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.

    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.

      Yeah, my ratios skyrocketed when I finally got access to fiber. Went from struggling to hit 1.0, to easily hitting 150.0. My highest ratio is nearly 1000.

    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).

    ~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!

      My thinking is that i’ll start deleting stuff when i run out of space, which it turns out will never happen because 4Tb is apparently enough to store more movies than i’ll ever want to watch.

      So 2k+ movies are just sitting there passively seeding in the background and i just kinda let them. I really don’t know which ones are rare, but surely i must have saved a couple torrents from dying over the years. I know there’s a lot of churn in seeders so i feel good being long-term

    “Trainwreck - Poop Cruise” is my current #1 ratio.

    I usually delete after watching so this is just among recent downloads.
