▲ 12 ▼ Why torrenting haven't fully adopted I2P? (lemmy.dbzer0.com) submitted 3 years ago by idkman@lemmy.dbzer0.com to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 33 comments fedilink hide all child comments 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?

I2p network recently went through a DDOS attack. Even during that point of time I had no issue surfing/torrenting. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 0 points 3 years ago (1 child) Ah, I meant that there isn't enough content on I2P because people are lazy to switch. For example, I torrent Asian media (using nyaa) and the last time I tried using I2P, I didn't find a lot of what I wanted. Hence I decided to go for a seedbox.
