How do y'all upload such large collections to services like Soulseek? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

For context, I have around 14k albums that I'd love to share and keep the stream flowing, but I have a couple of problems.

A.) My PC isn't always on, which isn't the biggest issue but I know a source just being inches away from being offline is painful.

and the more important issue, B.) Soulseek genuinely slaughters my PC resources at high album counts. I have a decent gaming PC, not some budget machine. Is there a way to limit it's intake?

I really do want to share my collection, but I don't have the money to set up a seedbox equivalent just for uploading music. Any help would be appreciated :)

slskd is a game changer for me. I have it running 24/7 on my pi but should run on pretty much anything.

With Tailscale, Navidrome & Symfonium life is nice. Sitting at the beach with my Mum I could open my phone, download her fav album in flac and stream it back at 128k MP3 to the little Bluetooth speaker and 1 bar of signal/reception.
