I found I2P much better than Tor network, and now it supports BitTorrent protocol too https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/bittorrent .

Why haven't the pirates migrated to I2P? Why are we still using clearnet and making people backout of seeding cause of DMCA?

I would like I2P to be implemented as a default by pirates, but it looks like people (including myself) are lazy

Yeah, I just can't be bothered to switch when torrenting works fine as is.

And in almost all cases is faster.

It's not really a hassle to configure your i2p node. I2p network recently went through a DDOS attack. Even during that point of time I had no issue surfing/torrenting.

Ah, I meant that there isn't enough content on I2P because people are lazy to switch. For example, I torrent Asian media (using nyaa) and the last time I tried using I2P, I didn't find a lot of what I wanted. Hence I decided to go for a seedbox.

Cheers

Yeah that's one big hurdle to get past sadly, it's like getting people to switch to a new chat app "no ones on it I talk to so I'm not bothering"
