it hasn't been working for months, maybe longer.. I don't know what changed but it was working then it stopped and I haven't been able to resolve it, surprised it's not more widely reported

It can be tricky because some categories or items are not very popular and others have so many seeds that when someone leeches you get to upload for like 45 seconds and you're done.

Ones with very few seeders can be good to sit on for a long time because though they may have few seeders because they are unpopular, you'll get a good amount of upload when people do decide to leech it.

If you're looking for something faster then use freeleech torrents, try ones that have been downloaded a lot, which is an indication that it is popular. Or with few seeds to compete with, or with a lot of leechers but leechers become seeders so sometimes they will only be fruitful for a short period.

Downloading freeleach is the way to go but it can be pretty hit or miss so you may need to download quite a few to find a couple that will give consistent leachers

You'll def need something with more storage, the social contract with torrents is to upload as much as you download.

I had the storage but kept running into bandwidth limitations from my ISP so found a seedbox works really well, it's like $5 a month for a basic one with a few hundred gigs storage, then you can do all your p2p on it and download your files from there.
