- Do you use any P2P file sharing programs?
- Which?
- Thoughts?
- Recommendations?

Possibly not what you have in mind, but Flying Carpet is awesome for moving stuff between devices regardless of type and OS.
@filesharingI’m looking for different P2P networks to share my papers and essays. It is mostly postscript, pdf, and txt files. Since a lot has changed in the p2p landscape I figured I should ask around before downloading and testing a hundred apps that don’t work.
@lamp
And ok, I’m interested in this too and building an app related to that for Autonomi which is still in testing so not ready for you yet. When it is, next year?, it might be just what you want.Right now my goal is an rclone backend to deliver versioned backup. Earlier though I demo’d versioned websites and I’m figuring out how to incorporate both, and other features into a cross platform app. File sharing is obviously part of the potential here.

I have Proxmox installed on a small computer that has a container running Docker running Gluetun and qBittorrent.
One feature I like about qBittorrent though is the ability to bind to an interface.
I was thinking of setting up a dedicated box to serve my files on all the P2P networks I could find. I don’t even know if some of them are active any more.
I do know that edonkey still has some peers. WinMX became DarkMX and has a few dedicated peers. Other than that, IDK. What about Limewire, Phex, or gnutella in general? Does anyone still use these old nets?
The link looks fishy. ‘ytmnd.com’ looks like a spammy domain.
@lamp @CanaryWhiskey oshit it’s lemmy lmao this explains why the tagging is fucked
It *is* a spammy domain, it’s the ancient meme sharing site.
Don’t be a niggerbrain that puts all your fucking secrets in the browser and allows scripts to run everywhere to steal them. And, y’know, don’t install the toolbar. It’s literally that easy.Alternate version: You are, without a doubt, the worst pirate I have ever heard of
