> Do they at least seed while watching? Considering there is a file called "verify-no-uploads.js" ((https://github.com/hotheadhacker/seedbox-lite/blob/6a89d1974...)) in the repository, which contains "This script monitors network activity to ensure zero uploads", it seems to me like they're actively trying to just be leechers.

Hi HN, I built Seedbox-Lite, a minimal self-hosted torrent streaming app. The idea was simple: I wanted something lighter than a full seedbox, but with a clean UI that feels like Netflix. You drop it on a server, point it at torrents, and stream instantly in the browser. A few things it does: • Streams video directly from torrents without waiting for the full download • Works in any browser, mobile included • Simple Docker setup (one command and you’re running) • Password protection so you don’t expose everything by accident • Lightweight — no heavy dependencies or complex configs Repo: https://github.com/hotheadhacker/seedbox-lite I’d love feedback on what’s rough, what’s missing, or what would make it useful for more people.
