Libretorrent is not buggy, and it’s actively maintained. Open up an issue on its repo if you have one.

A lot of these suggestions aren’t great. A ton of US-based or 5-eyes companies and closed source software.

I firmly believe you should develop apps natively for that platform. That means jetpack-compose for android, and swift ui for iOS.

These write-once-for-all platforms layers are always bloated, slow, unoptimized, and behind the official native specs.

Decent programmers know how to learn new languages and frameworks as necessary, and most of the concepts are the same across programming languages. Nothing near as difficult as learning a real language.

This is what scares me more than anything, and why I want to reject requests to drive ppl to the larger instances.

The more decentralized, the healthier we are.

If you have a native torrent client, you just click a link, no pasting required.

“I’m gonna say the f word”

Banned. Some people really do have zero compassion for others that might be harmed.

Democrats were and will be happy to continue to bomb all trans ppl out of existence, as long as they’re not from white countries.

Democrats were staunchly against even gay marriage… Hillary Clinton was against it until 2008. They’re an opportunistic controlled opposition party and will be against your rights as soon as it becomes expedient.
