torrent-paradise VS Magnetico

There’s also this which has since gone down but remains up on IPFS and its index hasn’t updated since January…

https://github.com/urbanguacamole/torrent-paradise

https://cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipfs/QmQjsKamNFZRvCMXDvZXQmRYjsm...

For what its worth the source code is still up if anyone wants to create a new site using the code https://github.com/urbanguacamole/torrent-paradise

For years after we missed torrentz.eu, torrent-paradise.ml was my best torrent search engine. Clean, powerful and uptodate. Sadly it is disabpear in mid january 2022 for reason that I don't know. I'm wondering if there is any clone/alternatives, as the source code is available here

The code and instructions are still at https://github.com/urbanguacamole/torrent-paradise

related: https://torrent-paradise.ml/ Also based on IPFS with this HTTP gateway. I find a lot of torrents in there.

Torrent Paradise

I'm only on private, invite only torrent sites right now, so I'm not much help with regard to public trackers. I do have https://torrent-paradise.ml/ bookmarked which seems to be an aggregator of many other trackers.

It would be great to add this very interesting and valuable torrent site in already awesome provider packages for Syncler. Here is the link for the site https://torrent-paradise.ml/

This is really neat. I'll need to check it out. A couple years ago I ran my own instance of Magnetico (https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico), but this project looks a lot more polished.

This is likely your best bet, but I'd recommend you use postgres over sqlite, this is however where development died so some features like search or stats aren't implemented while using pg as the db.

You can create decentralized bittorrent indexers though (see https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico as an example)! This means you can search for bittorrent files without having to rely on a centralized service (although building the index does require some time & storage space of course).

Someone else did this a while back, universe continues to exist.

I just get a rickroll gif on your link. Did you mean this project?

"Autonomous (self-hosted) BitTorrent DHT search engine suite."

https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico

Although I admit, that I would love to see a maintained DHT search solution (like magnetico or dhtcrawler2).

Yeah, you probably found it. Abandoned, yes, but not necessarily unfinished.

A magnet search is easy enough to self-host, I can provide you with instructions to self-host a clearnet magnet search engine over I2P in the meantime, but you can probably figure it out from this: https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico which is an easy to self-host DHT search engine.
