Hello, I am new here and am wondering where and how to learn and get into private torrent trackers?

Just start with freeleech torrents until you build your ratio. On my tracker, any torrent over 10gb does not count towards your download so everything uploaded from it is a bonus. For example, if you' downloaded starfield today, by the end of the week you would probably have a decent amount of upload credit (its 90gb and people leeching constantly).

Pair this with a few of the most popular TV seasons and you're set. Just leave those torrents seeding forever and you have little to worry about. If any slow down, replace them with something fresh. After a couple weeks you will probably be at the point where you never need to consider your upload/download ratio again.!

Add your torrent client to windows startup so you have to remember to stop seeding, not to start seeding.

Buy a cheap 2TB HDD and seed forever.

Download things when you need them not just because you can Be smart, not greedy. Share back. It's really not that hard you just need self control.

Its also important to set up your torrent client properly, any good tracker will have a guide for this. Your upload won't count if it's not set up correctly, this is where a lot of people fall.

But be aware that most of these sites will ban you if you don't keep your ratio, but most will let you "donate" to get back in.

I'm not an expert but i'm happy to answer any questions.

Good luck!

Or I could not do any of that and stick with Debrid. I never have to worry about seeding anything ever again.
