Thank you for your service.

Some people including OP are completely missing the point of torrenting, which is to share, not leech. If everyone removed their torrents like the OP, everything would quickly become unavailable and die.

IMO a better strategy is to just limit your global upload speed. Then at least you're still making everything healthy and available, even if its distributed slowly.

If everyone torrented like OP, then no torrent would ever become unavailable and die.

Since they keep seeding until 2 users have the torrent.

Noobie question: Is keeping my PC running to seed torrents taxing on the HDD or would it shorten its lifespan?

[-] dessalines@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 months ago

It'll probably tax your HD a bit more, sure.
