In the context of self-hosted it means easier cleaner installs and avoiding different poorly packaged projects from interfering with each other.

There are invite threads including one for EMP. Just nobody offering invitations lately.

Perhaps so because I’m not very community oriented. I don’t chat. I download. I seed forever. I have 500Mbps upload. I fulfill requests occasionally. I’m not the worst for sure.

I also didn’t try to join EMP until last year when I was looking for something I couldn’t find.

I haven’t found a good one. I have HDB and BTN accounts in great standing for over 10 years and I still can’t find an EMP invite.

I’m seeding some nice mega packs on a few of the easy to join trackers. I say join one that’s open for sign ups and seed what you have. After you build up some bonus points request what you’re looking for and cross your fingers.

If there is latency look at optimization around your tcp window scaling settings.
