i downloaded a torrent file, and for good practice started seeding overnight reaching more than the 1:1 ratio, should i just delete the file or is there a way to correctly stop seeding?, im using qbitorrent

I seed to 500% and then it auto stops. But I wouldn’t mind if Qbittorrent had an option where it would start seeding again automatically a while if the torrent had too few sources at some point later.

Have it set the torrent to superseeding mode instead of stopping it. It makes it seed only chunks that are not available in your swarm.

if they do that available that would be really cool, like a notification or an option in settings

This script triggers changes by reading ratio and seed numbers, but I think its main goal is to never stop seeding rather than reading paused torrents. https://github.com/tomodoro/qbitseedmgr
