If you just want the decentralized torrent search there's also Magnetico [1] and Bitmagnet [2].

Tribler tries to be a whole lot more, including its own tor-like network for anonymity and this latest AI powered search to make it easier to find content you might not know by name

Magnetico is pioneering work. Very simple, very effective. However, with a single 1 Gbps VPS you can take it down. Simply spam at full speed and switch VPN reguarly. Same for Bitmagnet.

Usenet, email and now Mastodon show that you need a trust framework. Otherwise you open to abuse and spam. With Tribler we're hoping that after 3 generations of failures/learnings we now have operational decentralised trust. See our public thinking for 11 years on Github [1].
