      Tons of tutorials out there but think of it as two pieces 1 is a bunch of servers that hold Stuff 1 is an index that tells you what that stuff is

      If you’re willing to pay $5-15/mo for ease of use, it’s a reliable way to get data of all kinds. Some is even legal.

      Tldr: It’s the client-server version of torrent’s peertopeer
