What to selfhost if you have a lot of bandwidth (lemmy.zip)

Hello fellow TCP users.

I am currently having a lot of unused bandwidth. I wonder do you have any suggestion what to do with that bandwidth ?. Ideally it should more or less only relay the traffic because unfortunately I don't have much idle RAM left (something like a Tor-relay node but least risky).

Thank you very much!

Edit: If you have any not so heavy torrent (<250GiB) that could be helpful please suggest as well.

Edit: Thank you for all the options you've suggested:

archiveteam warrior
tor relay/snowflae
syncthing relay
i2p
radicle
peertube
seeding torrents

I will try to explore them. Thank you very much!

I've not looked into it much yet, but https://radicle.xyz/ seems interesting.

It's kinda a bittorrent-powerd codeberg and it looks like it's worth playing around with (even though it might not get you rid of much bandwidth... IDK how popular it is, but source usually doesn't weigh that much).
