    I've been testing a setup that automatically generates OpenStreetMap/OpenMapTiles formatted pmtiles and mbtiles, then makes them available by torrent. The torrents get placed in a rss feed at https://planetgen.wifidb.net/

    Basically what I did was set up 'qbittorent' client to watch the openstreetmap rss feed. when it downloads a new pbf file, it runs this script I made at https://github.com/acalcutt/PlanetilerTorrent , which was based of the osm torrent creation process.

    The script creates pmtiles and mbtiles, then makes torrent and starts seeding them in qbittorent.

    In qbittorent I have options like how long I want to seed for (30 days), what do do when done seeding (Delete the files) and also speed controls so I can limit bandwidth during my working hours.

    I have this running on a old laptop with 2TB nvme/64GB memory. It seeems to work pretty well so far. It would be nice if my internet speeds were a little better for initial seeding, but at least the torrents share the load with other people who are downloading/
