So I need to transfer a large file from my friend's computer to mine. He's far away and neither of us want to pay for cloud storage, so I decided to try using bittorrent to send it directly from him to me

>I created a torrent file on his computer using Qbittorrent

>Used trackers from Openbittorrent

>Added the torrent to his application, and sent the torrent to myself over email

>Opened it up on my computer, also running Qbittorrent

And yet it says "Stalled" and won't work no matter how much I fuck with it. What am I doing wrong?

Does your friend has the bittorrent ports forwarded to his computer on his router?

Also, why is it saying I have 23 peers and no seeds? Are people trying to steal my torrent?

Oh.

Is this just an easier way to share files over a torrent-like connection? I'm doing this because I don't want any compression whatsoever

base64 encode the file
split the result to chunks of some size
put chunks on pastebin
do the reverse on the other box

it's not that hard...
