Hello everyone,
I recently came across an article on TorrentFreak about the BitTorrent protocol and found myself wondering if it has remained relevant in today’s digital landscape. Given the rapid advancements in technology, I was curious to know if BitTorrent has been surpassed by a more efficient protocol, or if it continues to hold its ground (like I2P?).
Thank you for your insights!

2001 was 24 years ago in 2 days. BitTorrent can drink.
I dislike this fact, because I very clearly remember when it was brand spanking new

Haha yes! 20 little BitTorrent windows ticking along
I remember when eDonkey and later eMule were brand spanking new… It took quite a while for BitTorrent to gain enough traction (and for me to get fast enough internet) for it to be better… (and, frankly, I still miss eMule’s Kademlia network’s peer to peer search capabilities…)
Ed2k/kad are still kicking, I use mldonkey for that networks
Yeah that’s pretty ancient to me. That’s like saying XP isn’t ancient
It’s still newer than HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
