Hello! I am not very experienced with torrenting other than downloading some stuff via torrents from time to time.

Let’s say I wanted to start seeding my own torrents, where do I start? How do I go about creating my own torrent(s)? How do I go about seeding them? I have a personal Linux server at home which I would like to use as a possible seeding farm. How much bandwidth will this endeavor take up? I assume I can limit it via whatever software I’m supposed to use.

Once again I would like to do this on a Linux server so anything that can’t be entirely managed via CLI is out of the question.

I also want to mention that I tried Googling this but answers were inconclusive especially for my specific use case.

Thank you so much!
