Oh i meant private has better retention. Oops. Editing

“access to torrentfreak”??

Here you go, it’s a universal unlimited invite: www.torrentfreak.com

What.cd was one of the hardest to seed well on, unfortunately.

First is speed. I’ve been able to get speeds of ~50MBps (not Mbits) on private trackers, granted this is dependent on Internet connection more than anything but I get 20-50% of that speed on public trackers.

Second is retention and breadth of selection. If you’re trying to download the latest Marvel movie then every tracker is gonna have that, but if you’re looking for an older movie then it’s much harder to find on a public tracker. And if you do find one, it’s likely to be seeded by 1 person and you can only squeeze 10KBps out of it.

Does that include voting/subscribing? Or only comments/posts?

maybe they should start a lemmy community to talk about it… like [email protected]

Well when a community is small, there’s pretty much no moderation involved most of the time. I started a few subs on reddit, I never had much to do when the subscriber count was below the hundreds.

Once it gets sufficiently large, there will be people willing to mod.

I’m new to the whole fediverse thing, but - if you’ve got an interest in a specific, uh… Sub? Fed? Community? Why not create one yourself?
