I don’t understand what the down votes are for. Disagreement? What’s wrong in hoping for improvements in a 13 years gap? I understand and agree that BT over Tor is bad, but two doesn’t conflict.

hoping for improvements

There have been improvements, just on the fronts you haven’t been looking for. Also, if I am correct, torrenting over Tor would be painfully slow compared to normally doing it or via a VPN. It is not worth the hassle.

The way it was worded might be seen as improvements to torrenting on Tor instead of improvements to i2p.

I think they meant the former, but if there were downvotes that’s still weird
