Hey there, I tried many torrent sites but all of them either don’t accept registration or some other bogus reason I don’t understand ..

For example I heard about Glodls torrents as a common place to upload torrents.. However when I tried to register in their forum , later I received an email stating “ Unfortunately the account you registered on Glotorrents community did not meet the membership requirements “

What are the membership requirements for Glotorrents community?

I am not able to find out what are the membership requirements in their website or anywhere on the internet.. this is so annoying and frustrating because I feel that every one can upload their torrents easily but this crap only happens to me..

I am having difficulty uploading a torrent because I don’t know any torrent website that would accept my registration and I tried a bunch, so it not just Glodls…

Yeah, Im not aware of Postman… how i can find it or how to use it..

“You can use i2p” as in install i2p the official software? I tried that years ago , then I became extremely confused because of it so I removed it.. its the opposite of user friendly

I know i2p is a bit hard, but if you can figure out how to torrent you should be able to. I would recommend i2p+, which is a fork of i2p that is compatible with regular i2p but is easier to setup. Get the installer here: https://i2pplus.github.io/. If you are on linux, don't worry about it being an exe, it is java and you can run it with "java -jar file.exe." After that, you can open a browser and type localhost:7657. Set your proxy in your browser to localhost:4444, for the http and https settings. It may be different if you use chrome. Now you should be able to access tracker2.postman.i2p/. Don't forget a slash at the end. Your browser won't recognize it as a website without it. You will need the torrent client, i2psnark, which can be accessed on localhost:7657/i2psnark.

This may sound complicated, but the steps to install i2p boil down to:
