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.

Seeding some torrents since 2022. So no.
Only for your bandwidth though. Make sure to set bandwidth caps for either trackers or timeslots (e.g. evening for gaming time)
