Obvious answer is that people are sharing otherwise you’d have nothing to download :P

For me I usually permaseed, or at least seed back 5-10x if not planning to keep a download. Also have created new uploads at torrent sites and occasionally fill requests.

Minimum 10:1 ratio always

Try to seed as much as I can, usually around 2:1, though my ratio is only 1.57 on one of the sites I frequent, so I’m apparently just a leech.

I have. Just doing a side project with the purpose to share rom files as torrents. Still planning how I would do that anyway

I always seed. I also upload stuff, if I don't find it.

A lot of what I grab doesn’t have a lot of traffic, but I’ll grab and seed at least 5-10x on stuff like new releases to make up for it on IPT.

I’m on a gigabit fiber connection, so my upload on my seed box is about 5-20mbps constantly.

I seed as much as I can but I still have a 0.75 ratio sadly. I tend to dl random old shit nobody wants so i’m just helping the other weirdos like me. I plan on switchi g to linux and I’d like to set up my computer to be as secure as possible and then maybe upload stuff also.

And like in the old times I bring my hdd with me and share with friends when we meet in person !

I basically seed forever, and I also upload and fill requests sometimes. I have dozens of terabytes seeding. I see it as my contribution to the preservation of the art, and if I’m going to take up the storage space with it I might as well be seeding it too.

For my automated content I go by a factor of 4. Things that I download manually usually also gets ratio 4 but things that are hard to come by or that I really like get unlimited ratio.

This is me, except a ratio of 2. Hard to find things or if it’s taking a long time to download, I let it seed indefinitely

I always try to seed whenever I can, since I only have mobile connection

KpntAutismus ,

the_kalash ,

I usually keep the last 1TB of my torrent downloads around for seeding.

Also part of a DDL group which I gave a few donations to.
