Bitmagnet Allows People to Run Their Own Decentralized Torrent Indexer Locally
5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Feb 2024

I'm the author of https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent (started in 2013) and https://github.com/anacrolix/dht (started in 2015). I have a DHT indexer implementation I developed in 2021. It's currently closed source but available for use as part of https://www.coveapp.info/. I have found that after several hours the search is excellent and stays up to date with ease.
