minus-squareKorthrun@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·1 month agoAfaik the person who wrote winmx is now publishing fopnu and darkmx. So it’s still around, just in a modern iteration.
minus-squareBrickfrog@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·edit-21 month agoYup. The Tixati torrent client is also developed by the same dev team (mainly Kevin Hearn I believe). I think that the timeline was WinMX, then Tixati, then Fopnu, then DarkMX. (Tixati / Fopnu / DarkMX are still actively developed and updated)
minus-squareMr_fuzzy@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 month agoOMG thank you so much. I didn’t know the devs were still active. I used to use winmx all the time.
