Just wanted to know what you guys consider to be better when torrenting. Is it I2P network or a VPN like Mullvad, Proton or IVPN?

While we are at it, are there any other trackers recommended besides the ones in this tutorial?

Is postman still the only source for torrents via qbittorrent?

Just did some quick testing, most are open trackers operating in I2P (meaning they will happily track and announce to any torrents/peers using them).

Working I2P Trackers, these should work with any I2P public torrents:

Working I2P non-open trackers, meaning they only track torrents published at their own website.

Currently Down I2P Trackers:

Unsure if all the ones currently down are just down temporarily. Some I suspect will come back (e.g. skank.i2p has been around forever so I'd be surprised if they're permanently gone).
