    There needs to be a holiday or a month where everybody seeds old shit every year or every few years.

    There’s A ton of old stuff that I’m waiting on. Old fansub anime that was super popular but isn’t anymore because it’s licensed on streaming or official blurays came out, but has karaoke and translators notes and is the same stuff I watched growing up. It’s all but lost media at this point because everybody that archived it has it on offline hdds and probably doesn’t expect anybody to want it.

    So if there was a known sharing period for obscure old torrents to be reseeded, that would be awesome. That way, people could check in for a week or a month every year. It would be like torrent Christmas. Lostormas.

      I was literally gonna give it this weekend as a last hold out before giving up, but now that it’s finished I’m gonna leave it on my seedbox until the seedbox dies.

      As a Usenet user this meme hit me like a nostalgia wave from 15 years ago
