Filelist is no longer shutting down

Me omw to bless my ship before sailing

I tried out my first private tracker with SceneTime.

Literally no benefit over a public tracker that I can see.

• Selection is smaller, all torrents have a max of 30 seeders that I have seen. Most have 2-3.

• Impossible to get a good ratio without seeding an unwanted popular torrent because niche content will have like 3 downloads per year.

• Tons of abandoned torrents or torrents with 1 seeder

• Almost 0 content older than 10 years unless it is very popular

Maybe I am not integrated enough with the community, and my stupid ISP has extreme asymmetrical speeds that max my upload at 30Mbps, but I mostly still use a public tracker where when I seed, people will actually leech.

They are available at public trackers too. The only stuff that isn't there in public is the more obscure stuff, but you can try 4chan's torrents board to search for it.

Seed to leech ratios are better, fast downloads.

Massively depends on the tracker.

You should always use a VPN, doesn’t matter if the tracker is public or private. And yes, better selection, seeding requirements, and better speeds.

All of what this person said!

I still use public trackers though, mainly because I want my seeds to actually benefit others, not fill up some arbitrary private tracker counter.
