Finally fixed my torrent ratio
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
I'll admit, when I first started torrent I was not really familiar with how it worked and how important seeding was. I would just use magnet links without configuration to save the torrent and seed after completion. Well.. I have finally, got myself back to 1.00 after a couple months and working to try to always seed double what I get for each torrent.
Often times I was one of the few random seeders available for some of these torrents. Friendly reminder to give back because you never know when you're one of the rare cases that can complete someones long lost file download!
I always lose my seeds because I like to rename my files. Any workarounds?
Change the file name in the torrent client :)
This is what I do as well
I change the directory in my client. This moves the download to my preferred location for plex, etc. And it seeds from there instead
Keep the files in a dedicated torrents folder then make symlinks to where you actually want them?
Hardlinking files to their new destination and your normalized naming schema. Using symlinks would be madness.
