Would you mind expanding on public and private trackers, like ones you suggest and ones you avoid? I haven't torrented since 2009ish and am kind of lost in the landscape at the moment.
Private trackers tend to have better quality control and selection. They also have stricter rules about ratio, seeding, and behavior. An invite is required. Sometimes you can go through an interview process to get an invite. Usually once you get started in a decent private tracker you can get into others through recruitment. I won’t name names, but it’s not hard to find info.
