Discovering I2P torrents using BiglyBT (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

How do you use BiglyBT to discover I2P torrents from different trackers? I tend to just go to postman.i2p and discover torrents there, but I want a way to discover torrents using BiglyBT and I2P. I know that BiglyBT has DHT capabilities, does that work over the I2P network to discover torrents (Perhaps through Swarm Discovery?)

Any seasoned captains out there?

What's with "anymore"? It's still actively developed, there are regular releases of both the original Java I2P router and the 3rd party C++ router, if you mean that.

If you mean that it lacks content, please do upload there if you have something. If you already have the content on disk, it should only really take effort while you're just starting to create torrents.

Don't forget that

I2P is the only semi-popular mixnet that's suitable for torrents
nobody will know it's you who are uploading, so unless you upload info about yourself or you're living in an extremely nonfree country (in which case the Java based router will set itself to restricted mode), you can't really get into trouble for that

I mean piracy activity wise, it seems fairly head. maybe im just remembering differently since pirating was a bit less popular, but it feels like it was more healthy in the past.

Well, tracker2.postman.i2p just told me upon loading it that it's under heavy load. In the past few days it seems to have a steady 1-2 dozen new torrents a day. The site has statistics but seemingly only for the past day, however this is roughly what I expected, or maybe less.

Im talking more about the total amount of users/swarm size. it didn't have much list I checked, aside from a couple really popular torrents hitting around maybe 2-3k peers.
