got put onto bitmagnet (DHT crawler) by reading nostr and about a year and a half later my server has crawled and indexed 16 million+ torrents.
while it's mostly porn, my bitmagnet index getting to the point where it's pretty useful. it's fun to think of music or movies and be like "I wonder if my server can find that" before busting out search engines. I haven't needed to use normal torrent sites for awhile
