I wanted to gauge interest in Tribler. It claims to be a tor-like p2p client created by privacy researchers. Has anyone had experience with Tribler? Did you get any takedown notices? What were speeds like?

I sorta don’t get it. Aren’t torrents sorta the original peer to peer thing to begin with?
Torrents are p2p and can be encrypted but aren’t anonymous. Tribler claims to be tor-like and no trust needed i.e. anonymous.
Looks like connections are onion-routed and it has its own built-in discovery
Then why not just turn on I2P on regular torrents on regular clients like qBitTorrent?
I guess you could sat the same thing about the tor browser but I feel torrenting is a level where you should not really need it integrated.
Original? No. Usenet, BBS, IRC are the originals. Napster made it hip. Soul seek made it better. Then there was Limewire, DirectConnect, and some others. Then there was BitTorrent, which I really did use to download Linux ISOs before the rise of popular public and private trackers.
