rad seed rad:zSRxoVUEiahZiaSKxAGcWuC5HEcK
Seeding replicates the repo and counts your node toward the seed count above, which can take a while to show. Tap the command to copy it.
To seed every public repository at once, run a permissive seed node, one that takes whatever the network offers. The Radicle seeder guide covers setup, and radicle-seed-prune frees disk as it fills, so there is no minimum disk to start with.
