What’s your favorite general use tracker and why?

Torrentleech because it’s the only one I have access to 😎
Well you got one of the best.
I also say TL, content and design top notch. Even tho a staff member in support irc was a real asshole once lol.

Probably TL or maybe AR.
I’m tempted to try AR, I hear the community is good, how does the content compare to TL?
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:
Maximum users: 31,337 Enabled users: 21,735 Details Users active today: 4,210 (19.37%) Users active this week: 7,876 (36.24%) Users active this month: 11,970 (55.07%) Torrents: 557,791 Requests: 37,058 (85.95% filled) Snatches: 25,294,672 Peers: 588,259 Seeders: 581,686 Leechers: 6,573 Seeder/leecher ratio: 88.49
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?
Hmm, I know there are two Pirate Bay documentaries, but I think they focus more on their story and the legal fallout rather than the origins of torrent piracy.
“Steal This Film” and “TPB AFK”
IPT
Vouch for IPT
Granted it’s the only one that still works that I have access to but seconding IPT.
The best thing about ipt is freeleach
