That's what I read on their GitHub page. I was looking for software similar to Hatt for torrents.

Hey everyone! I'm using the torrentgalaxy.one mirror and every time I use the sort function by seed it glitches. Does anyone have a better mirror to use or a workaround? Thank you

I'm looking for a good/cheap long-term way to seed massive archives (20TB and growing) without burning out my home NAS. I want to keep sharing the full archive, mostly private tracker stuff, but my local setup is starting to choke on the load, especially at 24/7 and the power bills that come with it.

I thought about moving the whole thing to a high-capacity seedbox (some go up to 100TB or more) and offloading the stress from my hardware entirely. I used to run a smaller 6TB setup on AppBox and they do have higher capacity options BUT they're still a bit too expensive to pay monthly for me (https://www.appbox.co/).

So ideally, I'd want to automate syncing new files via rclone or Nextcloud, keep things seeding full-time via ruTorrent/qBittorrent, and still have access for remote streaming or file management. And save as much as possible.

So if you have a fully remote setup for long-term seeding, how are you doing it? What works better in terms of stability, bandwidth, tracker compliance, and so on?

New to Private Trackers and I'm not getting much upload traffic despite having tens of torrents going across several trackers.

A few trackers have issues where the announcers are showing as "Working" but "Rate Limit Exceeded. Please Wait"

I use VPN - so could it be an issue with the IP being used heavily?

Main Question is - Is this a problem? will it affected my ability to seed?

I wanted to install a few Total War games (Napoleon, Empire and Medieval II) via torrent. When I tried to launch Napoleon, it didn’t work, Medieval II said that there’s an error, and Empire didn’t even download, because uTorrent didn’t accept the file.

I’ve already played Napoleon on my old laptop with Windows 10 installed, using exact same torrent file from exact same site.

Is the problem in my antivirus or version? Is there a software that can help to run these games?

Lately, I've noticed that new episodes from a show, especially those on Netflix, Paramount, or Amazon, are no longer appearing in 4K HDR, as they used to. Did something happen? For context, I usually watch on Stremio on my Google TV using Real Debrid.

Surf Shark has worked well in the past, but suddenly lately nothing is downloading. I just tried some test torrents, and nothing. Neither magnet links nor torrent files are working. I'm stuck with Xfinity for ISP and they spam me with nastygrams whenever I torrent without a VPN. Any tips on troubleshooting this? Is Surf Shark having issues?

For the very fact that there is always update to every early access or full product every time it is released. Right away, no waiting. You seeds are crucial to upholding the civilization.

I want to use Transmission on my Mac with Proton VPN.

Do I need to link Transmission to the VPN or can I just flip the VPN on and use Transmission?

Does anyone know how to link Proton to Transmission?

Thanks in advance

I’ve been using Windscribe for a while and I’ve gotten three emails over the past year telling me to stop torrent or that they caught me torrenting something. I’m confused because this used to always be fool proof. I use Qbitorrent and I’m smart about it. I’m not sure how Spectrum keeps getting me.

I run a small self-hosted server at home (basic Ubuntu box with qBittorrent and Nginx for file serving), but my upload speeds are garbage, and with new laws in my country I'll also have to worry about the ISP and what they think about the seeding.

But even without these issues, for the next few weeks I'll have to share a few large personal .torrent files (let's say 200GB each) with a private group. So I’d need something that can stay online 24/7 without killing my local connection.

So my first thought is just get a cheap seedbox for uploading and long-term seeding, maybe from Appbox because they have services under $10.

But I also need decent storage (200-400GB), qBittorrent or rTorrent support, and something I can script or trigger remotely. So anyone who's done something like this, please tell me what the easiest/cheapest/safest way to go is. Budget is a bit of a concern but not too much. As long as it works!

Hello, yesterday i spent HOURS searching for the full series of Naruto to download all in one batch, but i had to stay up until 1am to find the answer (i downloaded them manually). So today i decided to change that, and i made a torrent file with all of the 220 episodes in Italian, but i have some concerns:

  1. What trackers should i use?
  2. Is it safe to share without a vpn?
  3. Can people track me from my torrent file?

Hello guys, I am trying to populate my jellyfin media server and (with the help of my python knowledge) I am building a crawler to find and download movies torrents and consequently the movies themselves. I prefer movies in Italian but I can also watch them in English. Do you have any recommendations on websites easily scrapable by automated programs (and quite safe)? (I’ve tried with ilcorsaronero.link but the login system blocks the crawler) Do you have any advice in general on this project?

I've been trying to figure this out for...many hours now. I torrent on my phone and send the files via WiFi to my android TV box to be stored on the 1TB SSD, issue is that my phone has limited storage so either I download a fraction of what I want and wait for however long until it seeds enough for I have to hit and run to download, send, delete in batches to the android box. Only one torrent app on the actual store, doesn't support external storage writing. Sideload LibreTorrent, app is borderline unusable even using a mouse and any torrents just....don't download and sit there.

Does anyone know of a solution for this? I've tried basically every torrent client I can think of and none of them support external file writing, and I can't format the SSD as internal storage because that just makes it disappear and the only data I can transfer to it is apps, no media of any kind

My Internet is 25mbps up and down, so one 20 minute episode of anything 1080p usually takes 2 hours.

Do you guys also have slow ass internet and go to your relatives house where they have 2.5g fiber and crap your pants when everything is instantly turning into seeding? Do you tell your family or are you like me and go into their gateway before hand and input your VPN port because there's no way my boomer mom is going to know I'm torrenting.

Does this subreddit have a FAQ post or something similar? If not I'll ask more questions.
