There are just too many technologies in this realm for me. Torrent, Tor, VPN, Nostr, Usenet, I2p...ITS ENOUGH SLICES!

>>1384888
i2p is pretty neat, better than tor in principle imo.
Still have just tor installed on my new computer right now desu.
Have to install i2p again.

Honestly the advantage of tor is its provided exit node. For i2p you'd have to pay some as far as I know.
Also i2p is rather slow. If you don't absolutely have to, torrenting over yggdrasil would be preferable.

>>1387389
I leave a server with i2p going, and it's relatively fast after you've been on for a while. I like that you can save eepsite hashes in your local address book under whatever name you like, and they have an 'old internet' kind of feel. I don't bother accessing the clearnet through an exit node: that's not what i2p is for.

>>1384888
Does your seeding iver I2P still benefit leechers that do not use I2P?

>>1387618
>Does your seeding iver I2P still benefit leechers that do not use I2P?
no. you all have to use i2p

>>1384888
Don't ISP at least get to know that I2P communication is taking place?

>>1384888
Thanks for posting, OP.

I had tried to get torrenting working on I2P some time ago, but I couldn't get the trackers to connect to any clearnet peers iirc. Not sure what I was doing wrong but I might give it another shot.

>>1388818
>but I couldn't get the trackers to connect to any clearnet peers iirc.
I2P torrenting is I2P user to I2P user only. I2P is not Tor.

>>1387757
Yes, they can't see what it's doing though

the biggest tracker in my country (and language) now force you to pay if you want to download more then 5 torrent a day, those fucking faggot, I hate them

>>1384888
explain to me, a retard, how torrent through i2p works. is it just builtin in the i2p protocol? do I have to add a proxy to my torrent client?

Is that the french one, ygg or something? I thought there was a bypass?

>>1389709
>do I have to add a proxy to my torrent client?
Yes. Your client has to support I2P to leech & seed torrents on the I2P network.
From my understanding, it works the same as clearnet just that the traffic is now encrypted and routed many times , so it's now harder to tell whos doing what.[1][2]

yup, yggtorrent There's a forum on the site, and it's rather amusing to see that there haven't been any messages since last night (they delete everyone who complains and ban the account).
it was easy to bypass because these retards left the hash visible, but they removed it. There's some script or something that pops up on the subreddit, but it's patched within a few hours.
The largest team (several hundred terabytes uploaded) posted a message saying it was a scandal and that they would stop seeding. The result? Account banned.
Now everyone's shitting on them and the most recent uploads have 0 seeds lmao

>>1389674
Just use public ones
Ive been using public ones for decades, Im not bored to death yet

Cool site that downloads torrents from nyaa.si and then seeds them over i2p so you can download and seed over i2p:) have gotten a few shows I liked but never bought a VPN to download
add some shows or whatevers on nyaa to postman or some public trackers:)
4olv65sj4ifeak26wqiifr3q2vjv5d44x733ncqhtd7cmjwoinpa.b32.i2p
more trackers can be found on notbob.i2p like sigma tracker, simp, the other ones, i just wish there was more easily searchable ones

>>1389749
I wonder if there are mirrors of clearnet trackers

>>1384888
id like to support i2p BUt isn't
the dl speel like what between 10-150KBs with an average of 50ish ?! Bro thats like what 1 week to download one 27GB bluray rip

I rather support seedbox providers as for like 3-4 euro you can these days get a 1TB disk storage seedbox linux shell

at 50KBs it would take 7-8 months to fill that and at less than that over a year. The time it takes to setup i2p I got that money out in working for 1 hour for minimum wage in lidl to pay a seedbox for a whole year and can actually offer DDL to ppl from my seedbox like friends and family

>>1389881
with 14 peers im uploading around ~50KBps to ~550KBps, sitting at around 400KBps right now.
its definitely not fast and especially when only like 1 person is seeding you can probably expect something like 50-100 KBps. If you're trying to fill up with a torrents at once I'm not actually sure what your average speed would look like. I guess the max would be your max, for me right now thats 5MBps or 5000 KBps but yeah it isn't that fast.
That DDL part of your seedbox actually sounds pretty cool and i don't doubt it's probably more convinient. I2P can't do something like that since if you wanted to do DDLs you'd need to run a eepsite they can download from or give someone the login to your I2P router or just run a normal website on your server seperately to download from.

You know what a seedbox is so I will assume you also know how bittorrent works.
If everyone kept saying & doing what you are doing then I2P would have been stuck on 150KiB/s.
I2P is the same as bittorrent, more people & bandwidth means better throughput.

>I rather support seedbox providers as for like 3-4 euro you can these days get a 1TB disk storage seedbox linux shell
Do they really need your support? Are they not just inserting themselves between you and content so the can make money off other peoples work?

how the FUCK do I update my fucking addressbook? literally EVERY FUCKING SITE tells me "Remote host not found in router's addressbook". How the fuck do I add to my fucking addressbook? I'm using i2pd

Also what happened to niggas on the internet? Nobody knows how to search for information anymore?
Shouldn't it be incredibly easy now that you can just ask AI for all the answers.

It may need to go mainstream if they keep pushing for Digital Id to access the Internet.

>>1384888
>You can torrent for free, no paying for vpns, worrying about doing it from home, needing to pay for a server
I can already do this

>Peers make a portion of their resources, particularly bandwidth, available to other network participants.

I would love to participate but this is just killing it for people with really slow internet

I don't know if this is the place but the meguca streams for 2025/6 are cross seeded to i2p trackers, will try and port SnW rewatches to i2p too

Not trying to come across as rude how I phrase this, I guess technically you can set it to 0% of your bandwidth if you want? the option is there. It just hurts your anonymity a bit with the amount of data coming in and out, the connections are still going through proxies and are encrypted. If that's your issue then there's your solution if you're open to it. I forgot to answer your question earlier, my bad anon.

torrent pool for /a/ board streams/stuff. right now it's just the meguca and the sora no woto streams
http://tracker2.postman.i2p/index.php?view=TPoolDetail&id=1879
maybe switch them over to av1/opus/avif later to free up on space and more friendly on RAM since the videos are in AVC and 7-12 GB is a bit of storage for the videos to take up.

>>1390494
My prediction: what will become more important will not be anonymity technologies -- I2P and Tor (among others) already work pretty nicely -- but technologies that conceal I2P (et al.) in the first place. basically steganography.
I've thought that it'd be cool to steganographically hide Tor connections inside seemingly normal HTTP connections, leveraging small differences in things like Last-Modified, Date, Cookie, Etag headers and stuff.
Though the bitrate would be extremely low ;_; and there's probably much better ideas from smarter people

>>1384906
This isn't something pizza pie you nigga just use them all every day all day

>>1392405
Tor has a bit more of this with bridges and multiple types and stuff, helping people from china and everything connect, with multiple distribution methods like websites, emails, telegram, whatever else. I2P I really have no idea but I see what you mean. I agree with it somewhat, but if I think about how censorship is now I don't feel that way for myself at least. I can't think of a time, as an american, where tor or vpns have been illegal. I can't think of a time where nyaa.si or whatever 1337x or TPB has been illegal to just visit. Usually you have to be literally committing a crime to get a DMCA letter in the mail or whatever.
I don't disagree at all that purely connecting to these things is for sure blocked in other places (Italy I think, China, Russia, North korea, I'm sure there's more) and it's getting a lot worse in some areas (UK, Iran).
Overall I'm hopeful that these things will continue to work out and won't face massive legal issues or if they do, it'll be really hard on the plaintiffs or whatever you wanna call them. I do hope I2P gets some cool obfuscation like you mentioned though.

can a normal torrent get an I2P tracker added to it and share swarms or nah?

>>1392730
Never did it but I know theres some clients popular in I2P that it sounds like can do it (maybe BiglyBT or Qbittorrent?, Only way to find out is look it up or edit the file yourself and add the tracker) Sorry I can't help a lot with that question.
Also does this av1/opus reencode seem alright? Curious if the quality is good enough for how big the torrent is for this meguca stream and if its worth trying again.

Yeah you can turn on mixed mode & just add the I2P trackers.

Did you create this torrent yourself?
If you are seeding this pre-release I don't think you should have you IP visible to the clearnet swarm.
Also make it a BitTorrent version 2 hybrid & add the group name to the file name, like this: 'The.Chronology.of.Water.2025.1080p.WEB-DL.X264.AAC.2.0-CabPro.mkv'
