I was just browsing some torrents lately and anything that isn’t on a torrent is on a website like rapidgator. Rapidgator is ok if you downloading audiobooks, but why aren’t more people using OnionShare to send and receive files? I haven’t used it and I don’t know it’s limitations, but if I ever wanted a file which was shared over it, I would spring into action and install it.

So yeah, why?

    I already tested it,
    It was good enough,

    For me, I don’t want to use their resources, because this service has an cost, and its better used by journalists, activists etc, rather me to download shitty Hollywood movies.

    Speaking just for me ofc. No judging

        yeah true,

        But in warez’s context, if you host your tor’s relay, and you pay for the bandwith, then an mass sharing have a cost. And you have to include the storage too, its not free.

        Thats why my answer,
        for me onionshare != rapidshare.

        Not the same “business model” at all,
