Can't seed when I create my own torrent

[TheYellowArchitect]

Hello!

I tried like 6 months ago to share a file by making a torrent of it and failed, and I want to retry that, as I see this as something basic and important (e.g. sharing files with friends without file limit bs)

I wanted to confirm if I can seed, so I downloaded some random old movie torrent and downloaded it, and yes, I can seed it after downloading (ratio 2.0+)
It had like 5 trackers, and I copied those trackers, and put them onto the torrent I created, of a file of 216 mb. This is the torrent if you want to try it out https://files.catbox.moe/idty7g.torrent

Anyway, I gave the above torrent file to a friend of mine, and he used it, and we waited 40 minutes or sth for the trackers to refresh, and there were 2 peers in the network, and I couldn't seed, that is all. I tried pausing and starting, didn't work. OS is Arch Linux without systemd (Transmission-gtk)

Any suggestions are much-appreciated, since I can't find an active torrent helping community, I honestly cannot figure out trackers, like, I had 1 of 5 working, but now none of them work (can't connect to anyone in the above torrent!)
