Does Tixati v3.42 allow Swarm Merging?

Because I saw this today = https://i.postimg.cc/hv02SqZV/Untitled.png

But I did not find any Swarm Merging options in the settings. So, how is this possible?

I believe the message indicates that BiglyBT is doing Swarm Merging, or do you have this message with another tixati?

There is no magical “swarm merging” feature you all are so excited about. If some user adds torrents that have matching files (big ones with exact same size) to Vuze/Bigly, the client announces that torrent X and torrent Y might have matching files to Vuze/Bigly DHT. Other Vuze/Bigly clients that have torrent X or torrent Y running might check the peers of corresponding torrents to see whether they might be the additional source for some of the files.

That text on the screenshot is just a peer client identification. It is not required or trusted. You can change it to anything you like. Vuze/Bigly simply use a different identification data for connections with peers that are found through those announcements to indicate that they are not directly interested in that torrent specifically, and make potential debugging easier.
