Could this become a "Caring is Sharing" sub, just like the old days (lemmy.world)

For too long imo, piracy had become a "grab it all" environment. The old "Caring is Sharing" mantra seems to have disappeared. So maybe, this Lemmy could revert back 20-30 years to become a real sharing community. IDK.

Have been doing this stuff for more years than most of you have been alive, ha,ha!!

In the early days of torrents, seeding was a key feature to keep the post alive. But now it seems too many just want to download and fuck off, with absolutely no seeding back. Why is that? They just download something, then it’s fuck off to anyone else who might want to download it?

To me the basic spirit of sharing has gone. Maybe I’m just an old cunt now, but to me it’s a real shame.

I set up a vm for torrents so I could seed as much as possible without affecting other things I had to do. I have been seeding for 100 days minimum per torrent. Nothing worse than a torrent with no seeds.
