There are alternatives, but people don't move to them, so they don't improve. I2P is a good alternative for torrent, but not many people want to move to it.

I doubt anyone will register to any lemmy instance that does this. One of the reasons people use lemmy is privacy.
This is insanity, humanity is slowly losing its mind. They want AI for everything.
IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is a protocol for messaging and XDCC is a file sharing method that it uses.

Usenet is basically the first forum to exist on the internet and people discovered that they could share files by encoding them into messages, for example lets say I take a file encode and divide it over a 1000 tweets. I would also make a file called NZB to find the messages and share it, so people could download it. Usenet still exists for file sharing, but it is paid. You would need an indexer that finds the files and a usenet service. Honestly you could get both indexer and the usenet service for as cheap as $2.5 per month way cheaper than Netflix.

Fair enough, but I did try with tracker couldn't connect with anyone, switched to I2PSnark worked very well.
The problem is that qbitorrent doesn't support DHT via I2P only trackers, you can clearly see the difference in peer numbers if you use I2PSnark. Officially it should work, but I couldn't get any peers.

Go to usenet, it is way better, or IRC if these torrent are slow.
Aa far as I know yes. You can check with them. All other indexers stack, I see no reason this wouldn't.

Glad to see people promoting I2P, which should all move to I2P.
