“How many people still use BitTorrent today is unknown. The days of it making up a third of all internet traffic are clearly over, with one estimate suggesting that it now contributes less to residential upstream traffic than iCloud and FaceTime.
BitTorrent Inc., the company cofounded by Cohen and now owned by Sun, claims that its clients still have 54 million monthly users. Popular third-party clients like Transmission, BiglyBT, and qBittorrent likely attract millions more.
I know what you download, a website that tracks usage across multiple torrent sites, estimates that about 0.25 percent of all internet users download torrents on any given day. “The number of torrent users [has been] pretty stable over the last eight years,” says the site’s admin, Andrey Rogov. Data Rogov shared with The Verge shows Russia, where Netflix and other streaming services aren’t legally available due to sanctions related to the Ukraine war, as BitTorrent’s biggest market. The United States ranks second.
Engling doesn’t have any data on the total usage of Opentracker, but he does at times look at the publicly available reporting dashboards of popular torrent trackers running his software. That data suggests we may be seeing a resurgence. “In absolute numbers, it has gotten more,” he says.
One reason? Streaming is getting awfully expensive these days.”

The PocketNAS is still in development.
However, I've been tinkering with file sharing lately. I have this concept of different encryption levels, ranging from minimal to extreme.
The minimal level relies on server-side encryption, while the extreme level uses a separate key file containing a 256-bit encryption key and a dedicated client.
Compared to other solutions I've seen, this approach is designed to be easier to set up while giving administrators much more control over user access and stored data.
Maybe I'll share some updates on this in the future. :meow_sushi:

«Das beste Datei-Sharing auf dem NAS: Opencloud, Resilio, Nextcloud, Syncthing und mehr»
— auf @ct_uplinkDas Thema ist (für mich) nicht neu, nun aber wird es endlich populär. Denn langsam aber immer mehr sehen US-Konzerne unter Kritik. Vor nicht all zu langer Zeit wurde ich noch gerne als "Nerd-Spinner" angesehen da ich nicht der Masse hinterher "torkelte".

Got any recommended file sharing sites?
0x0.stis out as of 2026-06-20.envs.shwent out earlier. Well, I made my own, but obviously I won’t share it with others.0x0.st->uploads disabled because it’s been almost nothing but AI botnet spam for the past few months. will be back with a few changes at some point. no ETA.Techies of course can push their stuff to GitHub and use its sites, but that might be ToS violation.

What’s striking is the difference between the wording around the results back with filesharing vs. now with AI:
Publications showing effects of #filesharing usually wrapped their results (mostly no effect or increases of artist income) in wording around harm.
Publications showing effects of #AI usually wrap their results (e.g. all but LLM helpers lose job opportunities and “poorer outcomes in more complex tasks”¹) in wording of opportunity and productivity.

Can someone please do a OS-Independent AirDrop implementation that works on all devices?
Wasn't there something about this in the EU DMA? Why is this not a thing yet?
Please do not reply to this toot with alternatives which require both clients to be connected to a network. The thing which makes AirDrop great is that it just creates a local Ad-Hoc network and does not require the participants to have internet.

🏴☠️ The Pirate Bay Remains Resilient, 20 Years After The Raid * TorrentFreak
｢ On May 31, 2006, less than three years after The Pirate Bay was founded, 65 Swedish police officers entered a datacenter in Stockholm. They had instructions to take the site’s servers offline as part of a criminal probe, following pressure from the US government. ｣

*The Pirate Bay – Ein Mythos, der 20 Jahre überlebt*
Vor zwei Jahrzehnten – am 31. Mai 2006 – stürmten schwedische Polizisten in Stockholm die Serverräume von The Pirate Bay. Obwohl sie 65 Beamte mitbrachten, um die Plattform zu zerstören, blieb der Erfolg aus.
