Discovering I2P torrents using BiglyBT (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

How do you use BiglyBT to discover I2P torrents from different trackers? I tend to just go to postman.i2p and discover torrents there, but I want a way to discover torrents using BiglyBT and I2P. I know that BiglyBT has DHT capabilities, does that work over the I2P network to discover torrents (Perhaps through Swarm Discovery?)

Any seasoned captains out there?

I've tried it. I like the idea of Tor for torrents, you don't need a VPN to torrent. But found the speeds to be really bad and the content was a fraction of the clearnet trackers. Might check it out again though it's been a while.
