Comment on Show HN: Mabel – a fancy BitTorrent client for the terminalparent

Comments

I occasionally use a torrent to simply move large files to a slow endpoint (essentially a 1:1 connection), so I don't have to keep the session alive for the whole file move. I know there are probably other, better, solutions for that, but it works for me.

magic-wormhole would be a better alternative

it's durable (as long as the process is still running it will keep sending on reconnection) and more private
