What kind of torrents are you downloading? Are they from private trackers? Public trackers? From search?

You should use this: https://github.com/ngosang/trackerslist/tree/mastermelani wrote: Sat Dec 02, 2023 6:33 amOh, sorry - I just Realise Now why I never see - that metadata thingy - its because they are Dead torrents - anyhow its working again Now - Yes they are all Public trackers - I never download anything from private trackers .Peter wrote: Fri Dec 01, 2023 9:59 pm What kind of torrents are you downloading?

Simply open like "trackers_all.txt", click Raw: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ngosa ... rs_all.txt
And then add these trackers to your torrents.
You can even go into Settings ("Options") and there look for BitTorrent on the left, scroll down and you can use that box there to automatically add this list to each new torrent.
This list updates sometimes, so just replace it every now and then. No need to overdo it though.
Good luck.
