A better way is to just limit connections and upload speed and seed forever. If your total connections is like 25 and your max upload is like 100 KB/ps, it doesn’t affect your internet or anything although you should use a VPN and stuff, and it helps to keep those files out there with a complete source for a long time.
Because most people aren’t using the files as stored in the download folder. They’re renaming it, moving it to another folder, and deleting all the extra files. So you’d have to store it twice basically.
This is one of the great things about the *arrs. They will create a hardlink to the file in your media folder structure so that you can keep seeding and have a well organized/named media library without wasting storage.
Prior to that, I also just saved my torrents directly to my media library, and used the torrent manager to rename the local file properly. Same thing effectively, just a lil more work.
I don’t know about you guys, but I set mine to stop seeding at a 2.0 ratio. Give more than you get. That’s the way I think it should be.

True, unless you’re the only one seeding a particular thing. It’s good to keep media alive and available, especially obscure stuff.
Why would you do that? We should all keep on seeding as long as possible.
Cause I don’t have infinite storage. My seedbox has 4TB.
but seeding more does not cost storage. why not let it seed until you delete it?
if it’s so that you can see which ones can you delete, just click on the ratio column to sort by that, and check which ones have a higher ratio
