European Medicines Agency ditches Elon Musk’s X in favor of Bluesky
  • Twitter sucked long before musk bought it. A character limit is just not conducive to many modes of discourse, but that didnt stop people from shoehorning everything into the format anyway. The result is a culture of flippancy, where quips are prized over earnest engagement. I had to stop using twitter in like 2012 because it only ever made me angry, even if I limited my follows to people I agreed with. It's all anwers with no questions, unless they're a rhetorical device in service of the answer.

  • When Is it Time to Look Into Private Trackers or Usenet?
  • I dont feel the need to, its all direct peer to peer so you're downloading one file from one person. Its not like a torrent where you're downloading little bits of a single file from many people. However it's still theoretically possible for a rights holder to share something on the network to bait you and get your IP.

  • Suggested Seedbox Provider
  • Thanks a lot. I edited my post, but i don't think the issue is as clear cut as just the server being slow due an overcrowded network like i thought at first. I just downloaded several gigs from it in under 15 minutes. Im just not seeing those speeds in my seeds. Maybe i have to pick better torrents to seed.

  • Suggested Seedbox Provider

    I was feeling real groovy about my fresh new ultra.cc VPS, but it's slow as fuck! sub 50 kbps upload. I'll never untank my ratio at this rate!

    Is this normal? Any suggestions for another provider? At this rate I wonder if I'd be better off just switching from mullvad to a VPN that supports port forwarding. Any thoughts on privateVPN?

    Edit: so the FTP speed is much, much faster than I'm getting on my torrent client. Either i don't have something configured right, or i need to be more strategic about what i seed. If anyone can help me trouble shoot, id greatly appreciate it
