The idea is that RetroTorrents allows downloads through torrents, while Vimm doesn’t.

Yeah, is there is a better platform perhaps?

I just put a quick description in this post, I will add a “what” section when I can.

(It sounds brilliant but) No, its a website like the pirate bay, nowhere finished atm…

RetroTorrents.net has magnet links

1 magnet = 1 Compressed ROM

Use a torrent client

Download compressed ROM

Play the game

Seed the torrent

No need to decompress a .7z or .zip file from vimm or myrient, the ROM file is already compressed and ready to play.

For those curious, here is an I2P guide from 2 years ago.

Can’t tell you right now.

PHP can be old but it is still taught at schools, are there other languages I should use?

There are unofficial search plugins for qBitorrent here and they work well

But I prefer using torrents-csv.com
