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
Your juvenile and race-slur language and profanity are unacceptable, dumb savage behavior. You might think you are being 'edgy'. You're just a spectacle of stupidity. [blocked]
I guess it depends if you mean between your own devices or with other people on a large scale.
For sharing some one off files between my own devices I use Local Send. It is across all major platforms like Linux, Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS.
DarkMX is old-school and very retro:
https://darkmx.app/
It also has a debian package downloadable from the site. One can run it in a container and forget about it.
@lamp
Possibly not what you have in mind, but Flying Carpet is awesome for moving stuff between devices regardless of type and OS.

I'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.
@filesharing
One thought I have: filesharing using rsync. Just scriptomatically create rsync commands to pull the chosen files in a list. Use rsync with hashing to prevent pulling duplicate data. With a little veneer and an interface, it would actually be quite handy. Then users can connect to any public repository and pull the files they want to read with a few mouse clicks, instead of meandering back and forth inside a web browser.
There's a CLI which can download using a hash so that you could do that 'out of the box'.

Last week I used transmission-GTK to download a Linux ISO. I occasionally use LibreTorrent on Android, but only when I need to grab something away from the Desktop machine.
