I found I2P much better than Tor network, and now it supports BitTorrent protocol too https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/bittorrent .
Why haven't the pirates migrated to I2P? Why are we still using clearnet and making people backout of seeding cause of DMCA?
Probably mostly cause:
What kind of speeds are you seeing per torrent and global with a few torrents running? I didn't try torrenting on I2p yet but even with my node on 24/7 even browsing was hella slow ( i was port forwarded too)
Typically around 500kBps I'd say. I've seen speeds in the MBps too, but that's rare.
That's quite slow then. I can torrent an entire movie within two minutes or so.
Edit: Getting 12+ MiB/s with a popular movie from 2006.
Yeah that is really slow and they didn't say if it was global or a single torrent. 500kbs is slow for one torrent but if 500kbs is all the torrents combined then that is extremely slow
A single one. Anonymity makes it slower for sure. Can't tell you the global max, because I don't know. If you trust your vpn to not log stuff or to sell you out, then that will always be faster.
Speed is not a problem for me, but everyone's different.
How's availability? What are you able to find, and do you find it the same way as usual, or is that separate as well?
I usually find what I need, but if I don't then that's not a big deal.
Yeah that's fair, I wonder how much faster it'll get if I2P gets a ton more nodes and more people seeding torrents
