Unless I post this hash somewhere, advertising "Hey, this torrent is Big Buck Bunny" like what 1337x and other torrent sites do, you won't "find" it. Basically, we have to use a torrent indexer like tracker2.postman.i2p to search the metadata and find torrents we want. If that makes sense. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] RyeMan@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I2P has its own DHT so all you need is an InfoHash to start downloading assuming there's at least one reachable seeder. MuWire is an application that lets you search the DHT. The developer recently abandoned the project though... I haven't tried it in some time but it probably still works. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Strict3443@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago I'll check out MuWire, was unaware that it used DHT. Also, I am just saying that tracker2.postman.i2p is the only torrent directory we have currently, and its best way to find and advertise torrents for others. Trackers (where your client announces to) are helpful to finding peers of the same torrent. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ninchuka@lemmy.one 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I've seeded clearnet torrents to I2P peers many times with BiglyBT without those torrents having I2P trackers, so it's definitely possible permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Strict3443@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) It would be nice to have qBittorrent auto add I2P trackers to all torrents to help cross-seed them. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ninchuka@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago That would be nice yeah, maybe have a list of trackers in the options the user can control to add to torrents automatically permalink fedilink source parent
