I see where your coming from but not everyone has the space to seed a torrent. I think those that use stremio and understand torrenting will one day, if they have enough storage contribute to seeding. I’m running on 256gb here T-T
Caching a torrent isn’t leeching. Like the other person said, it actually helps because it prevents multiple people from doing a hit and run. The torrent only needs to get cached once, and then everyone can just directly download that file, bypassing the torrent entirely.
There is no guarantee, because they’re not seeding. There’s one hit-and-run, then the torrent is cached on a server for anyone to directly download. Again, IMO one hit-and-run is still better than thousands.
Sail with us on the great ship Stremio
Stremio kind of sucks. You’re leeching a torrent you’ll never seed.

Then don’t use torrents. Leeching without seeding is literally how torrents die.

Caching a torrent requires downloading, no? What guarantee do you have that they’re seeding that leech?

It’s still bad though and it will still lead to a dying torrent.
