How do you go about getting invited to a private tracker?
I seed all my Linux isos on public trackers but I'm not active in any communities
Will an owl show up someday with a letter?
Go and interview for a tracker like RED (https://interviewfor.red/). From RED, you can get just about anywhere within the private tracker world if you’re a good member and rank up.
There are much easier trackers to get into that doesn't require this much prereading prior.
Private trackers (not the biggest ones though) do open signups from time to time too (ie no interview no vetting, just sign up), so look out for those.
The most important thing is if you're into the content offered on the site - RED's only attractive if you're an audiophile for instance, it doesn't have movies/games etc. Get a name, then find out from there how to get into it. Read the rules on how not to get into leecher status almost immediately once you get in. Once you get your foot into an easier tracker that at least has some content you're into, then make your way up if you want more.
On the other hand, if you can interview for and get into RED, that's a strong signal that you can make in in the realm of private trackers.
