Is there any downside to leaving something seeding indefinitely? Typically I just leave all my torrents seeding whenever I’m done 24/7 (whenever the VPN is on) but is there any detrimental issues to seeding too much?

It doesn’t bother me I was just curious if there was ever a such thing as too much seeding since I have like 20+ things seeding and maybe one thing downloading.

Speed isn’t an issue since I have gigabit internet.

    Bless you.

    I deliberately leave stuff that’s been a bastard to get seeding as long as physically possible. We’ve all felt the pain. Don’t spread it.

      Exactly. There’s little point in keep seeding popular torrents on public trackers (it’s a different story for private trackers though).

      But if you have a rare torrent that has been difficult to complete, please please keep seeding it for as much as possible!
