If I have had Radarr and Sonarr rename all my files and move them. Is it still possible to seed them? Do I need to package them as torrents again?

i seed a lot. but don’t have port forwarding so limited impact sadly
For some reason torrents I downloaded from the archive seem to get the most seeding out of?
Only one of the two sides needs a port open so I'm sure your seeding is contributing

My problem is that the file I download is not in the right format, doesn’t have any metadata embedded, doesn’t have subs embedded, and doesn’t match my file naming convention. In fact the way media is packaged, I don’t know how anyone that cares about these things is able to seed.
Being behind CGNAT unfortunately my seeding is limited...
No, I don't like using a VPN with PF... If I spend money, I do for Usenet....
I always just let the open trackers roll
Unfortunately, I am behind CG-NAT, so it always barely uploads anything.
I wish it could work like WebRTC or Tailscale. There could just be servers like the trackers, but to help establish this direct connection between peers.

I have a seedbox and have been using private trackers for well over a decade. I seed forever, or until I need space.
When I cannot find something on one of my private trackers I do look on public trackers. I find the experience lacking.
My issues with public trackers:
-
Search sites are sketchy af. Between pop up ads and fake direct download links, it can be challenging to find whatever you are looking for.
-
Files can be poorly tagged or completely named wrong. The number of times I have downloaded not porn only to find porn can be counted on one hand, mostly because the other hand is busy.
Anyway, I will gladly seed until the end of time if a public torrent search site exists that can get me the content I want without making me need a shower after.
Try rutracker, genuinely a excellent public tracker. Entirely in Russian but Google translate deals with that easily.

Jackett solves that issue
I try but it shows 0 active peers and doesn't upload.
There is not always demand, you need to leave the torrent app running in the background when ever you have the PC on - then when someone wants it you'll get a connection.
