[Feature request] Add myself as exact source when sharing MAGNET

by Bombadil on 2021/06/12 07:13:14 PM    
Hey all,

I'd like to be able to add myself as an exact source (or something else useable by Tixati) when sharing a MAGNET uri with friends over instant messaging chat.
Wikipedia already describes the xs (eXact Source) parameter for MAGNETs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet_URI_scheme

This could bootstrap shared MAGNETs faster (especially if Tixati prioritizes this added source for starting the torrent), and make it more userfriendly and nice to use in the end.

I currently share a lot over a private VPN, so I don't know if simple IP:port as exact source might solve my problem, though.
But I'm sure something like this will help many others, even if a built-in workaround for VPNs can't be found (I could disable my VPN temporarily, for example).

Kr,
Tom
