Why would I want to use them? Are they better than public trackers? Any good ones for anime?
I found that seeders aren’t an issue with private trackers, my downloads are faster because of it.
For anime torrent sites i’ve never used one of those but they are likely your best bet: https://fmhy.pages.dev/videopiracyguide/#anime-torrenting
They’re just like public trackers, but private so you’ll generally need an invite to get access to them. They generally are much better than the public trackers. Not sure about an anime specific one though.
Honestly I think they’re too much trouble.
Private trackers are great since people tend to seed things for longer, also to note generally keeping your ratio up is required. Personally, I use a private tracker when I need to find something I just can’t find anywhere else, but with that said for anime nyaa should be the only place you really need.
