The release of qBittorrent v4.6.0 stable comes with I2P support. While experimental, we can still get a working torrent setup using qBittorrent now. qBittorrent-nox is the Web-UI only version, and currently it does not have configuration settings in the Web-UI for I2P settings. This guide will show you how to setup qBittorrent-nox and manually change the qBittorrent.conf file to allow for I2P torrenting!

    What @supervent@lemmy.dbzer0.com said. Basically you get access to the I2P network (overlay on top of the regular internet) that provides anonymity and doesn’t require any port forwarding. Thus, this allows every user to seed torrents without worrying about opening ports or getting letters in the mail.

    The torrent space on I2P is still growing, there are some chads cross-seeding to the I2P network allowing for torrenting popular torrents over I2P.
