Is there a way to prioritize specific trackers in qBit? (lemmy.zip)

I’d like to prioritize bandwidth for trackers where ratio is hard and de-prioritize trackers where almost everything is freeleech. Is there a way to do this?

Tag based on tracker

Filter to that tag

Select all

Set speed limits for that group

Repeat

There are various automatic softwares that can manage this (like qbitmanage) but they are often a royal pain to setup.

You could first filter to a given tracker, select all torrents there en masse, and save some clicks; proceeding with your given steps. Cool! Btw, I use VueTorrent alt UI/ Theme

I'm not sure if qbit has a setting for it, but what I've done is that I have multiple instances/docker containers of qbit. One is specifically for ratio requiring torrents where I don't have a bandwidth limit on upload and have a higher limit of active seeding torrents that the other instance.
