People also need to keep seeding torrents. That’s how we can keep stuff alive
Everybody should look into hardlinks and cross-seeding. By today's standards, it's painless and very unlikely to ever take up your bandwith
In my case, I'm always seeding hundreds of torrents...yet my upload rarely goes above 1 or maaaybe 2 Mbps. Could just be luck, but you can always throttle the speeds if you need to
Torrent clients also have bandwidth limiters built in. So if a user has 5Mbps upload, change it to 1 or 2 on the setting and off you go.
both of them are much too slow to seed usefully
