> BitTorrent as a protocol has significantly fallen out of favor as the go-to technology for John Q. Pirate's needs... Out of curiosity, what would you say is

  For me, at least, I still use torrent//magnet technology on The High Seas. I'm not sure if this is because I am yet again unaware of What's Next until it's too late, or yet again Simply Stubborn on what tech I use, or whatever Option Three is this time.

  Rather than search a public torrent site and download files themselves, I see most people I ask using streaming apps like Kodi plugins or streaming websites to watch content like movies and TV. Some sites, like defunct Popcorntime, used torrent protocols in the background but a knowledge/use of torrents isn't really required as much these days. At least among my experience talking to family/friends/coworkers.
