Hey all, I know a lot of people are migrating to private torrent sites, and OK, that's a choice. However there are still a lot of people on the public torrents who are just leeching and not seeding.

I have several popular (old/classic) movies in my feed that I have uploaded (literally) 1000x the original and many more in the several hundred times. That's fine, I choose to support the community, but it's pretty depressing when I look at the seeders count and those movies have 2 or 3 other seeders.

This only works if you share. Please don't cut off as soon as you've downloaded.

And on a personal note, if anyone has audio or video files for "Machine Gun Fellatio" also listed as MGF could you please start seeding in particular

"MGF Pack 1"

"MGF+Pack+2"

"MGF+Pack+3"

If I can get the download completed I'll keep them up permanently, but unfortunately as they are obscure/rare I'm getting nowhere.

Rules don't permit me showing the torrent link of course. DM if that would help

I found an mgf torrent but it's all mp3. Were you looking for flac?

[–] thanksforallthefish@literature.cafe 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

MP3 is fine thank you

Cheers. That's their song with someone else's video, I'll grab it and stick it in the "adaptions" folder

I got them off 1337x.to back about a year ago, but as I just found out when I went and searched they no longer have it indexed (presumably too long at 0)

I tried to DM the magnet link to someone who DM'd but for some reason that didn't work. Happy to share the links if that is useful

Unfortunately, I am behind CG-NAT, so it always barely uploads anything.

I wish it could work like WebRTC or Tailscale. There could just be servers like the trackers, but to help establish this direct connection between peers.

Airvpn supports port forwarding. Well, other do too, but im only familiar with that one. I suggest you look into it; even just for privacy

[–] bootinelli@lemmyis.fun 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I try but it shows 0 active peers and doesn't upload.

[–] thanksforallthefish@literature.cafe 2 points 6 months ago

There is not always demand, you need to leave the torrent app running in the background when ever you have the PC on - then when someone wants it you'll get a connection.

I always just let the open trackers roll

I have a seedbox and have been using private trackers for well over a decade. I seed forever, or until I need space.

When I cannot find something on one of my private trackers I do look on public trackers. I find the experience lacking.

My issues with public trackers:

Search sites are sketchy af. Between pop up ads and fake direct download links, it can be challenging to find whatever you are looking for.
Files can be poorly tagged or completely named wrong. The number of times I have downloaded not porn only to find porn can be counted on one hand, mostly because the other hand is busy.

Anyway, I will gladly seed until the end of time if a public torrent search site exists that can get me the content I want without making me need a shower after.

Being behind CGNAT unfortunately my seeding is limited...

No, I don't like using a VPN with PF... If I spend money, I do for Usenet....
