0 because no port forwarding

I had gotten 100+ without port forwarding. Port forwarding is overrated, seeding time and popularity of torrent is what really matters.

not overrated. at least one side needs to be open.

I would get about 20x to 50x more up traffic with a forwarded port and no IPv6, as opposed to no forwarded port and IPv6.

as soon as a download finishes, upload drops to 0 and it never sends a single byte even if i keep it seeding for a week. thought that was a port forwarding issue..

idk I don't port forward and have 10+ ratios regularly

Because you're able to connect to people who have port forwarding set up. Meanwhile, anyone like yourself without it is unable to connect to you.

I know. I never said otherwise. I'm responding to someone who said they can't seed at all without port forwarding.

If you're willing to take the time to learn a bit of podman/docker, you should check out my recent post on I2P torrenting. There's no problems with port forwarding on the I2P network. There are other ways to torrent over I2P without podman/docker too, you'll just have to research them yourself

definitely will set that up once i build or buy a server pc. I've been postponing that for a year or so because school and new job have been pretty demanding mentally

is i2p torrent actually usable? last time i tried i2p itself was extremely slow and there was basically nothing to download, nobody seeding..

I can get 1 MB/s, but honestly 200 KB/s is fast enough for me, I just wait a few hours to torrent an entire show. In terms of content most of the show I want to watch are uploaded to Postman tracker
