    I keep downloading rare shit and no one else seems to want it.

    Even the popular stuff seems to only upload for a day or so.

    Also, I think deluge only wants to seed five things at a time then puts everything else as “queued.”

      You can probably set deluge settings for more than 5 torrent queued. At least qBittorent have this kind of setting.

      If you were able to download the rare shit, that means somebody else was nice enough to keep seeding it. Please carry it forward.

          Nice. In my experience you’ll get a few hits a year, but enough rare torrents and you’ll be seeding almost continuously

          You are in a fortunate position - you can make stuff available (this is nice and generous) while hardly having to upload anything. Consider joining a private tracker that gives you credit for TIME seeded, not Gigabytes of seeded material. Then just keep the stuff you download in the download folder for a long time before moving it/deleting it.
