Was recovering an old virtual machine onto a new box and was shocked to see 9,999, I presume thats an upper limit in the UI. Dune (2021) for those curious

Now wheres my crossbones flag?

    Download a popular movie and keep your computer on for a while 🤷‍♂️

    Although, seeding stuff that isn’t popular is also important. I don’t know what you’re seeding but if no one is leeching maybe there aren’t a whole lot of other people seeding either. When someone does leech, they might be very happy that you’re there keeping that one torrent alive.

      I was suddenly nostalgic for MythBusters again, and in my acquisition I found a couple seasons that have pretty low seeders. Will gladly be a forever seeder even if one person a year leaches

      I have a Raspberry Pi with the *arr stuff and Jellyfin that’s seeding 24/7. I tried looking for popular stuff on the private trackers I’m on but they always have so many seeders in comparison to leechers that I don’t know if it would actually help or worsen my ratio.

      You don’t even have to download the whole thing. Anything downloaded will be shared with other downloaders.
