Heya,

I released a new streaming app for Windows and Linux.
The plan is to code it also for Android and iOS.
It is coded in Rust, using MPV player as the player tool.
When turning the app off, you have the choice to remove all downloaded and watched shows, or keep them, resuming seeding them on load of the app.

The app is for watching shows, but also supporting the BitTorrent infrastructure.
Settings has many options to tune it however you like, the App is still in development, and has a update system when a new version is released.

Seeing a lot of streaming sites got shut down (also a few I was using myself, figures...), I decided to work on this app I was planning a bit later, but seeing how people are looking for good alternatives, here you go. I'm planning to add more functions, also a list like other sites soon where you can "bookmark" shows and such for later watching and so on, and perhaps adding a endpoint to AniRena to keep the bookmarks offline, and online which could be synced with other places like watching both on Windows and Android.

Hi everybody !

Just want to let you know, that AniRena has since begin April a complete overhaul.
Our old website, was just not enough anymore, and was pretty dated (it was last modified and made in 2013).
We also changed the whole back-end code from PHP into Rust, which brings a lot of speed and improvements (memory wise as well). It also was easier to include more features and tools, which would be harder to implement in the PHP variant.

Some of the features now on AniRena for uploaders:

• Create a torrent in the browser, no need for a torrent app.
• Batch upload torrents, no more one-by-one if you're releasing multiple versions.
• Helpful tools to auto-fill the best uptime and online trackers with a single button (data from newTrackOn).
• Now able to link online database information with a simple search field, which links to AniDB/MyAnimeList and others.
• Comments system for users and uploaders alike (can be disabled if needed per torrent), to interact with users on the platform.
• Your own (fansub) group subdomain to show your torrents, like erai-raws.anirena.com
• A API is included for who want to automate their uploads, the Guide page will show everything how it works, with small code snippets for various coding languages.

Also for normal users we have improved a lot too:

• On first accessing the website, you can already choose how you want to browse AniRena, like if backgrounds should be enabled or disabled, what interface language (we have 26 supported languages), and if you like to see Hentai (18+) material or want to hide it. All of this can be tweaked via the Hamburger button on the top right, and much more customizations to how you view AniRena.
• Search engine is optimized, also adding more options to search and filter/order, using a actual search engine to off-load requests from our database.
• Comments system to interact with uploaders or other people commenting in the torrent.
• RSS feed is now based on your current search activity, when clicking on the button you get a comprehensive and dynamic RSS feed for you to use.
• A hovering option to see if a anime is connected to a torrent, and when opening the torrent you will see Anime details on the torrent page.
• We also added, for people who prefer a simplified page, or prefer how for example it looks on Nyaa, a "Simplified View" button that shows the website in a simpler way. Only for viewing, some things still need to go through the full site.
• If you have a account, it will now highlight new uploaded torrents, for when you want to know if there are any new torrents.
• You can now report torrents with the report function, there is a ticket system that can be used to communicate with admin or mods, which will handle your request. This includes also for requesting a fansub group name, or anything else you need to convey to the admin or mods.
• Very extended statistics, showing the site activity, purely to see how AniRena is doing 😄
• A extensive guide that explains how to use the website, how the API works and how to help AniRena.

This is pretty much the full list AniRena supports now. There will be many features going to be added, we are still in the works to get a new seeding tool to be used (BitSeeder), which will also get it's own bittorrent client app, as we will be introducing "RtcTorrent" in the future, which makes it possible to stream video, listen to audio, watch manga and more directly in your browser, if the seeding tool with RtcTorrent is supported.

Let's try bring BitTorrent to the modern era !
