I’m sorry this idea is kind of hard to explain. Like if you had a torrent, but every week or so you’d have new interesting stuff to discover from it ?
LIke a “torrent channel” but fully decentralized somehow ?
Maybe you’d just get more torrents to choose from. Large, searchable torrent archives, “this week’s new torrents” ?
What about receiving news video, streams without a website to coordinate it, no gatekeeper except the digital signature of the strangers you trust ?
Like, why isn’t facebook a torrent network ? Why isn’t youtube, just torrents ? Facebook and youtube without having to ask Zuck and Goog for permission ?
retrovibed has a prototype of the DHT crawler buitlin, along with a userspace vpn and media player if you’re looking for public content. echoing what others said it can be somewhat resource intensive. its alpha software, but if you’re interested in trying it out ping me.
