  • Sharing torrents in a private group is a zero sum game. Ideally you have everyone with a 1:1 ratio but if some users go far above that they are taking ratio from other users who might be fully willing to provide upload, but simply didn’t get there in time. You can set torrents to close after they reach a specific ratio, but that also means bringing down the availability of that torrent.

    Also, it’s much harder to get to a 1:1 ratio if you only download less popular content because no one will download it from you for a long while.


  • I don’t think anyone who daily drives Linux understands how annoying getting virtually anything to run properly on that platform is, if you can get it to run at all. It doesn’t support most keyboard/mouse software, it doesn’t support any anticheat for any major games, and it’s chronic use of CLI means that it can never get a large enough amount of users to become a viable platform. The only way that Linux users will get platform support is if someone actually makes a windows level user experience, and Ubuntu is still nowhere near that bar all these years later. If I can’t use the things I use everyday on windows, on Linux without hitting the command line once, it’s not happening for the general public.









  • And that system was irrelevant on Reddit just like it is here. You still have a total karma number in the API, every app I have used shows it, even if it is broken right now. Only the default theme on the web page hides the number. The only people who saw value in karma are the people who farmed it and the people who bitch about the people who farmed it. Either way, making posts that get a lot of upvotes specifically to get a lot of upvotes happens here just like I does on Reddit so idk what this OP is trying to say because they’re farming karma lol.
