What I mean is if I create a new torrent of Big Buck Bunny with a InfoHash of b1946ac92492d2347c6235b4d2611184 for example, no one will find my torrent by searching for "Big Buck Bunny". Unless I post this hash somewhere, advertising "Hey, this torrent is Big Buck Bunny" like what 1337x and other torrent sites do, you won't "find" it. Basically, we have to use a torrent indexer like tracker2.postman.i2p to search the metadata and find torrents we want. If that makes sense.

I've seeded clearnet torrents to I2P peers many times with BiglyBT without those torrents having I2P trackers, so it's definitely possible

It would be nice to have qBittorrent auto add I2P trackers to all torrents to help cross-seed them.

That would be nice yeah, maybe have a list of trackers in the options the user can control to add to torrents automatically
