I was more talking about a local file sharing standpoint. Where FTP is more reliable and less of a hassle than most other options.

Don't forget to enable TLS , you don't want NSA knowing your username and password that are transmitted cleartext.

Well, sure, it's reliable if the connection to the server is reliable. If there's a connection error or a disconnect, you're fucked. At least with torrents you can pick up where you left off if there's connection issues.

you need a tracker server to torrenting. Plus it's retarded for personal files, since you don't want to share them with peers.

Is IPFS practical for transfering from one computer to and from a server? I'm using sshfs currently and it's decent enough, but sftp usually doesn't max out my connection.

this.
ssh everything. I have a 2tb ftp server, and made it sftp from wan and ftps locally.
ftps is fine but sftp is better, also don't forget to tune up your permissions.
>>57636953
can't two clients add each others ip's to connect without a tracker?
>>57639184
