Should I avoid uploading lossy music?

Good call, ask around to understand people's needs

There's a big gap on how people listen to music. Some people define lossless as the pinacle of copying vinyl. Others think digital copying is flawless. No matter how you go, your going to get haters and lovers. Do what you love and feel comfortable with. Bounce it off irc for input. But do it how you want either way

In the end you are the uploader that decides.

that best thing you can to is uploading mp3 and flac separately

i favor mp3 because i have only 2-4 TB Storage for mp3 and others files.

but for flac is that for my hard drives a overkiller!.

I certainly advocate lossless audio, but while trying to reap the benefits of "Deezer downloaders" I uploaded several albums in MP3. These releases may hamper the  potential upcoming FLAC rips (at the time of uploading there were no other releases for the same album with the exception of streaming-exclusive "Coloring Book").
I even have 128 kbps torrents, but Bejeweled soundtracks aren't available for purchase.

Releasing rare albums in low bitrates can be commended, but I see no benefit in pushing out major records in sub-standard quality. Storage space is ever-increasing and FLAC should be supported by the majority of music players (if it isn't, audio can be converted). I haven't yet decided what to do with these torrents.

I can't speak to your experiences or opinions--but just for myself, exactly because an album is rare, I feel it should enjoy a high bitrate.

Sure. I should have said "is acceptable when there's no lossless source".
