Not only Stremio, I heard there are other apps that do the same thing Stremio does, which is only leech and not seed.
From my research, the suggestions I found were :
- Disable DHT
- Use blocklists (I am also looking for suggestions, currently considering using this one)
There were also suggestions to block by PeerID, however Stremio generates a spoofed PeerID.
I also learned that Stremio only works if the tracker allows magnet links, but this doesn’t seem something actionable on the peer level.
Is there anything else I am missing?
That sounds horrible
…what? Why would it be horrible? Been using it for years, it’s perfectly fine. And contrary to what this post says, Stremio does seed torrents back.
