Ask a Pirate: What p2p networks do you use in 2023? (vlemmy.net)

I do use BitTorrent, but it's never going to beat the convenience of just searching for a file and getting it when p2p networks first came out.

For niche stuff like 1930s movies sometimes I need to start a few torrents to make sure at least one of them has seeds.

I have had success with soulseek for music, but what do you guys use for other types of files?

Is i2p just a privacy guard to torrent over? Or does it actually help one find content as well?

its an anonymizing tool like tor, but i2p supports bittorrent while tor does not. theirs also .i2p site like tor .onion sites. also i2p is peer to peer while tor is volunteer run with the tor project managing the network.
