@FansStability @feross Oh, @feross made webtorrent-cli? Thank you @feross!! It’s the best torrent client I’ve ever used. It even quits when it’s done downloading by default instead of endlessly seeding by default.

Did you know that the FSF has a PeerTube account? #PeerTube is a decentralized, federated video platform powered by ActivityPub and WebTorrent, and you'll find us on the Framatube instance: u.fsf.org/36m

BitTorrent (BTT) was Web3 before Web 2.0 even existed.

@feross As someone who's spent the last 2 years building an app on top of WebTorrent, I just want to say thank you! It's such an awesome project and an example of genuine decentralization / actual engineering—not phony get-rich-quick token stuff.

For some reason, WebTorrent is on the Hacker News homepage. Currently #2. I left a comment with some reflections on the project here: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=337928…

Lot of teams use GUN + WebTorrent ♥ @feross. GUN to sync the directory, magnet link, description, comments, etc. & WebTorrent to stream the video.

@Dzre @marknadal I am working with @marknadal to expand Gun's capabilities and build its DHT. Personally, I think Gun is the future. WT won't be going anywhere though. WT trackers are scarce and overloaded. But you can spin up your own: github.com/draeder/p2p-tr…

If you've wondered why WebRTC is so weird and how it turned out that way this talk by @steely_glint at @fosdem helps explain it: Why WebRTC is the way it is archive.fosdem.org/2021/schedule/…

An interesting parallel between my conversation with @pfrazee (runtimepodcast.com/#10) and @feross (runtimepodcast.com/#8) is the value of having a server in the loop in a p2p system.
