        I honestly don’t use it a ton, I generally use specialty trackers. I feel like the amount of torrents is pretty good, but the number of seeders is generally low. But that’s fine because it’s usually pretty fast seeds. Below are the stats if it helps at all:

    I’m genuinely curious if some can eli5 how torrent trackers came into existence. Does anybody have any concise articles or youtube videos they recommend about the history of torrent trackers (the tech and the instances) from the beginning?
