Could the data be retained on something like IPFS so that cloning of the tracker could happen independent of its existence?

- retonato 6y agoSorry, I'm new to HN (as author). What do you mean by "pin"?
- retonato 6y agoI thought about some kind of distributed storage, but the technology is not there yet (=I cannot implement that easily, users cannot use it easily). The site uses a regular PostgreSQL database. Most data, though, is published on Internet archive in a standard format (https://torrenthistory.org/docs/open-data/ https://torrenthistory.org/docs/open-data/). There are torrents as well, users can download and seed them. I will upload new archives monthly
