How do torrents work? On the computer I have Linux and qBittorrent, on the phone libtorrent or something else, and I set it so that I download the same file, and despite the fact that I have 90% on the computer, it doesn’t send it to the phone. And I want to do it in such a way that two devices download simultaneously so that overall the file downloads faster. But it’s not working for me.

Do it on your end — let it download byte by byte — and post the results.
>>108228169>How do torrents work?This is extremely well documented
>>108228169Seriously?
>>108228169basically there's this big chad dude and you say 'give me the files' and he says 'based' and that's basically it.
Why not just create infinite torrent downloading processes on your computer? If your theory wasnt insane, you'd get instant downloads.
Getting local peer downloads has always been iffy for me
>>108228169if you want to synchronize files between your own devices i would just set up a server on computer and sync it with every device you want that stuff on. personally, i download torrents and then create smb share on the folder so that i can watch it on my tv. only really works on local network but with some research you can set it up on any network but for wan i'd just use some cloud service cuz they are the easiest. basically what you're doing works but not in a way that you want to.
>>108228169Imagine if you used Kazaa from back then but for very big files.
>>108228217Excessively so, even. Broccoli headed op wouldn't even have to load up a manpage, AI summary would be enough.

>>108228169Torrent file is a list of hashes. One hash for each piece of the content.Torrent program connects to some server, using torrent id (which is probably a hash of all the hashes) to get all IPs who are already downloading. Then talks to each IP and asks for random piece to download while others connect to it and ask for random pieces as well.Uses hashes to check each downloaded piece until everything is downloaded and checked. You can optionally keep seeding, though it's not mandatory as long as there are dedicated seeders because the average download speed in the "swarm" is about same regardles of the number of seeders.
Use BiglyBT on both, it has support for LAN and PEX (peer exchange), it should be able to find each other as long as you're both on the same wifi, lan, etc.
