I Moved My Blog from IPFS to a Server
It's because of the kind of content that is shared. BitTorrent serves a lot of content you are not allowed to redistribute, so having an open gateway immediately puts you at risk of aiding the distribution of content. But it does work, someone even made something native to browsers so browsers themselves can share content: https://webtorrent.io/. There are even fuse "gateways" to make it native to your computer and pretend the files exist locally: https://github.com/search?q=bittorrent+fuse&type=repositorie...
IPFS doesn't seem to be used for that kind of content much, it seems to be targeted more towards web-native content (html pages, images, that kind of stuff). It's probably safer for Cloudflare to run this.

Time to watch my favourite ads featuring videos!
Then https://github.com/webtorrent/webtorrent could be used to actually download the videos in browser, the idea being here though, that you would at least seed out as much as you got. Enabling other's to access videos without requiring creators have the infrastructure to push a video to 1000s or more clients at once.

Reddit should have to identify users who discussed piracy, film studios tell court
Peertube can opportunistically use WebTorrent to ease the load on the server & have clients watching a video share the parts between themselves.

I stopped torrenting some time ago, but what are people's experience with webtorrent?

Script suggestion post!
acompressor.lua: compressor. blur-edges.lua: fills the black bars on the side of a video with a blurred copy of its edges. createchapter.lua: self-explanatory. crop.lua: crop video in a visual manner. encode.lua: make an extract of the video currently playing using ffmpeg. reload.lua: reloads videos if an online video stops caching. seek-to.lua: go to timestamp. simplehistory.lua: stores whatever you open in a history file. skiptosilence.lua: skip past "previously on...". smartcopypaste_ii.lua: copy/paste links sponsorblock.lua: skip sponsors in yt videos. streamsave.lua: save looped section to a separate file. subit.lua: download subtitles to playing video. uosc.lua: feature-rich minimalist proximity-based ui (my fav!). webm.lua: similar to encode.lua but with more features and no external dependencies. webtorrent-mpv-hook: enable mpv to stream torrents using webtorrent. youtube-quality.lua: change quality of currently playing yt video.

A common question about how to find repositories to contribute to
I always recommend people to contribute to software they use themselves. For me that is self-hosted servers like Mealie (Python+Vue) and Owncast (Go+React). Especially Owncast is a project that imo is comparatively easy to get into because the setup is kept really simple, documentation is good and the maintainers are super nice :) There are some good first issues, but in addition to that there are also often "debug problem X" issues that imo help one get into a project quick because you'll read a lot of code for them.

Selfhost Straming platform
I've heard of owncast have not used it myself but might be worth a try

Any open source community projects ?
The in my opinion best way is to contribute to software you already use. In my case that's self-hosted stuff like Mealie or Owncast.
