Feels very redditty, which is why I’m asking…

Also, what are total buffer size (what does it affect) and session waste (what does it affect)? qbittorrent-nox on Linux.

    I’m by no means a super user, I mostly download movies that are 1-5gb in size. Been on the same tracker since 2015 and I got 1.35TB downloaded.

      This is a really good example of how ratios are nothing but relative. It’s literally in the word itself! 😁 So, there are surely people that have much lower ratios than me for the sole reason that they have downloaded MUCH more and simply not yet seeded for the same amount of time. 😊

        My ratio went from 1.9 to 1.15 in a week, because I set up a Jellyfin server for my dad to use :D Had to download a bunch of stuff he would want to watch.

        Totally worth it though, now he doesnt have to watch the Mentalist for the 7th time because for some stupid reason, some stupid TV station executive decided that is the only TV series people want to see. Like seriously, I have never watched that show on my own, but every time I visit my parents, its on the telly. I’ve seen it enough to know there is a Red John (what a stupid name for a villain) who killed the main guys family, the main characters got married (?) but then broke up because apparently it might jeopardize their important po-lice work. It may be a good show, but that stupid telly executive has ruined for me. I love pirating, makes me (and my dad) free of this stupid bullshit.

        Mini rant over.

            Oh that might be a good project to do next!

            I’m currently setting up a headless debian and making it a music streamer, so that my dad can have something to listen to when hes on his walk or bicycle ride. So far hes been okay with Morphe+youtubemusic, but never know when that is gonna stop. Might as well start building a library now.
