I am aware of private trackers. I guess to me, even in the space of "it's neat to think about" something like Loops and built on activity pub makes more sense.
Now if we imagined folks offering home hardware or 'seed boxes' to help an instance out, that I could see being useful tech, but constantly uploading from your phone seems a bit silly.
I like the home hardware seedbox idea.
You could probalby make it as simple as plug it in and scan the QR code on your phone to pair it to your account, give it your wifi password or ethernet cable and it's sitting there donating a little bandwidth to the swarm and earning a 'I'm seeding rn'-kind of badge (people love gamification and cosmetics).
Good brainstorming, was fun o7
