Don't worry about it. On the other side of the spectrum are people who use seed boxes which are literally seeding machines. I'm currently seeding 27 torrents 24/7. I occasionally go through and delete old ones with a good ratio (2+) and plenty of seeders. I was in a place similar to you once and I appreciated those who could seed. Now I'm trying to give back.
500 torrent seeder here. I was a leecher back then, but now I have the bandwidth capacity and the Internet speed to do much more than before. I don't mind the leechers, they are part of the ecosystem.
This might sound funny but I am serious. Thank you for your service. Like, not parallel to marines, but sure as hell you are a force for good :') In a few years, I will share the burden :)
weak, i have 5 torrents with a ratio over 1000, 334 TB seeded in total.
at this point i just do it because it's fun to have big numbers
