I see, thank you!
And what if I, say, have to leave for X days and take the node down (like if the node is my PC and I go for a vacation)? How can I ensure my content is still hosted in that while?
Obviously it will slowly deteriorate, so you can only overshare and not be away for too long. That’s the price for having it trust-less. Stable and old nodes will also be taken down after younger or unstable nodes so both uptime and age is important concerning your example.
I have been thinking of proposing different “contracts” when sharing, say more or less if size, uptime, downloads, but nothing is done yet. Today it’s just roughly the same size.

Gotcha, thanks!
