r/i2p

It’s cool. It works but how do you justify the setup process? It’s quite technical. Fun tho but what do yall use it for beside movie server?

Happens exclusively on notbob.i2p or What could cause this?

On nixos using the i2p package

Edit: I switched to i2pd and i guess that resolved it. Still unsure what this was

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use qBittorrent with I2P for anonymous downloading, but I'm running into an issue and would appreciate some advice.

Current setup:

I2P v2.12.0 (running with Network: OK and port open).

qBittorrent with "I2P (experimental)" enabled, server 127.0.0.1, port 7656, and "Mixed mode" turned off.

I use torrents from public trackers like uindex.org and 1337x.to.

The problem: Even with I2P configured, the torrents I download still show up on iknowwhatyoudownload.com under my public IP. So the traffic seems to be going through my normal connection, not I2P.

I've tested I2PSnark and torrents from tracker2.postman.i2p, but the content on those trackers is very limited – I can't find the same releases I get from public sites.

My questions:

Why might qBittorrent be ignoring I2P for public torrents, even with "Mixed mode" off?

Are there any other active I2P trackers besides Postman that offer a wider variety of content (movies, series, etc.)?

Which client do you recommend for torrenting with I2P? Is I2PSnark the best option, or are there more feature-rich alternatives?

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. Happy to provide more details if needed.

Thanks!
