https://www.biglybt.com/ Open source fork of vuze (the development of which has slowed significantly recently) by two of the original azureus/vuze developers.The project aims to continue to develop enhancements while returning to the basics by removing ads and bloated features.
does the net-p2p/vuze ebuild work for biglybt too? AUR ships biglybt https://repology.org/metapackage/biglybt/versions
Digging... I like Vuze, Azureus, generally torrenting on Java. As Azureus project seems to be dying, no commits in 2 years[1] from now, latest release in late 2017. BiglyBT is very actively developed and enhanced version of Vuze/Azureus project with some bugfixes. Old software may have security issues. Looks live a lot of developers has moved from Vuze to BigltBT[2]. [1] https://sourceforge.net/p/azureus/mailman/azureus-commitlog/ [2] https://github.com/BiglySoftware/BiglyBT/graphs/code-frequency
Adding current net-p2p/vuze maintainer in CC. Please consider switching to this new upstream, net-p2p/vuze is blocking swt:3.8 cleanup.
