@drq @unlofl Leeching without seeding back is hardly tradition.

(also it seems Popcorn Time team thinks they are dead now)

@shuro You do seed the movie while PT is running though, no?

> dead

Who cares, the app works.

@drq @unlofl You might seed while you are watching but likely not unless you are watching something very popular.

The tradition is to give back at least as much as you got. This is what keeps p2p sharing running and allows things like PT to even exist.

"Seed what you watch" is useful for load distribution so the source can handle the demand but not much else.

@shuro Not watching anything right now, am seeding.

Watching "Death to 2021", still seeding.

WAmIDW?

@drq @shuro Hard to tell anything from this screenshot, since it only shows transfer rates. The real question is if you're reaching a ratio of 1, uploading as much as you download.

TPB wouldn't care, but most private sites would ban you if you didn't maintain certain ratios. Its part of why so many public torrents die without seeds, "hit and run" downloading.

@drq @unlofl Oh, it caches now? Nice.

If I recall correctly it wasn't the case in the past which was the reason not to use it.

@shuro Yeah, since forever.

And you can set it to not clear the cache on exit.
