aquatic: extremely performant open BitTorrent tracker software (UDP, HTTP, WebTorrent)
aquatic_http is a BitTorrent over HTTP over TLS tracker and aquatic_ws is a WebTorrent over TLS tracker. I don't have full current benchmarks comparing them to other options, but in a previous one, aquatic_ws handily outperformed both wt-tracker and bittorrent-tracker.

aquatic BitTorrent tracker: WebTorrent support (1.8M responses/second); new UDP benchmarks (650k rps)
I did some benchmarks with my load testing tool and got very encouraging results: 1.8M tracker responses per second when using 14 threads, compared to a maximum of 117k responses per second for closest competitor wt-tracker. I suspect that the openwebtorrent tracker would be a lot closer in performance to aquatic, but since it only runs over TLS, I couldn’t test it, as the load tester doesn’t support it. More info on the benchmark (PDF).

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.
