I’m willing to put up a domain. I think this would be a good idea. Private invites from Lemmy. What I don’t have is the technical knowledge to do this, since trackers are really intensive to make. I guess what I’m asking is if there is enough interest here to make our own private tracker. It will be very intensive on the dev end, but maybe we can do something for real here.

I’m not going to exaggerate here - we’d need the full power of the hundreds of devs on Lemmy to do this. It won’t be easy, but I believe it is possible. I also believe that it is worth it. Between us all, we may have just about every Linux Distro available. The hosting will be a problem for sure, but maybe we can sort that out.

If anyone is interested in doing this, we can make a github repo, or whatever is necessary.

Again, I think this is worth pursuing. We could potentially make a decentralized private tracker.

i love the idea, but p2p filesharing laws are quite strict where i live. i wouldn’t feel 100% safe even using a private tracker, i’ll have to stick to debrid services to cover my ass

You could use Torbox.app. Its like debrid, but also seeds so you can use it for private trackers.
