I don’t understand what would be the advantages over other trackers
and over public DHT. we can share magnet links in this community, and why keep it to us only? if we keep it public, the survivability of torrents can even improve
Public torrent users are 99.9% leeches. No thanks.
I have a few hundred public torrents active, and they all have peers, even the “fringe” ones. maybe your statistics is right, but even then it has value. I don’t care about leechers if it improves the service for us too
Leechers do not in any way improve the service, i.e. swarm. They harm the swarm by providing nothing to the swarm.
