For me it's YIFY versions of older movies
My all time ratio is not that high (101.8), but I have seeded an average of 1.124 TiB per day for the last three years on with my home server. All my devices included, I average 1.7 TiB per day

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.
Out of curiosity, which book?
I have no mouth and I must scream.
It was originally published as part of a book compilation, and it was kind of hard to find a file with just that story and without typos all over the place.
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'm on VPN so my highest is like 6.
I'm got a 100Mbps upload but nobody wants it through a VPN. 😢
Worst pirate ever, but also the best kind of person!
I see a lot of older Linux distros in this thread, why do that many people download them?
A lot of legacy stuff that's really expensive and time consuming to upgrade. If it ain't broken (and protected from the internet), don't fix it.
It's JAV lol
Same lol, this is MIDV-120, Found this at 1 seed with 100 KiB/s upload speed, I think it's safe to say I single handedly revived this torrent.
I feel so tiny next to some of the big numbers in here. My top ratio is 11.64x with 1.3TB up. But the current setup has only been up for two months.
It is lovely to see so many people training their AIs
are you seeding AI datasets?
Pirating to train AIs is legal^†^.
^†^ in some jurisdictions only; you may need to be a rich corporation for that to apply.
~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!
I have 2-3k ratios on Das Kapital by Marx and the manga version of Das Kapital. In fact all my highest ratios are some politcal classic ebooks with one comedy series mixed into it.
I've had about 1000 ratio on linux mint xfce, version 22.0 iirc
I'm coming up on 10000 for linux mint that I started nearly 300 days ago. 2.7GiB download, 24.8TiB upload.
My next highest is GIMP 3.0 at a little over 400.
Yeah I was gonna say I think I have like a 2000 ratio for Ubuntu 24.04 desktop, server, and some 3rd one that I’ve been seeding since it came out.
What torrent client is in the screenshot?
Tixati.
I use it mostly because it has a lot more options and flexibility, and also just because i'm already using it and it's a pain in the ass to switch
Geez. I seed until I upload twice what I downloaded. Am I a stingy bastard?
Just checked, it's a Ubuntu ISO
1904.21
I think I once had 20 seed ratio on the tv series Psych. Haven't seeded since my vpn got all wonky on me, I'll start again for sure.
MacOS monte - 485
MacOS Ventura - 327
Placebo - Without You I'm Nothing - 263
Monkey Island 1 - 243
ACE - 165
AmigaPower - 154
Weekly Famitsu 1993 Complete - 141
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).
I tend to stop torrents when they hit 1000, I feel like that's a "good enough" contribution on public stuff, except when I notice less than 100 seeders, then I tend to keep it going.
Top 58 I guess. Especially proud of the 800+ ratio on a 78 GB one (78*800≈61TB).
"Trainwreck - Poop Cruise" is my current #1 ratio.
I usually delete after watching so this is just among recent downloads.
