Under Autobrr, what do you mean by "Grabs all torrents from my username"?
I'm guessing it grabs from private tracker
So they grab their own uploads via autobrr? To what end?
I auto-upload to trackers that allow it. Instead of having the torrent already in qBit, I have autobrr send it to qbit with a special filter that checks for my username on the trackers I upload to.
I do this because If I grab the torrent at the same time as all the leechers then there's no delay for the leechers to start downloading meaning they don't have to re-poll the tracker as much to find me (the seeder)
This also works better for if you're not a pre-approved uploader (someone who doesn't need moderator approval to upload). That way once your torrent is approved I can start seeding right away.
Ah I see now! I wouldn't have thought to use it this way, but that makes a lot of sense.
