Had to rewrite most of the API thanks to the new load that I never expected to happen. After the first wave of users, crashing and errors were so common, that I decided to just rewrite the API, the Relay, and the Satellites. This was the only way as I wrote sloppy code as I never expected TorBox to be this popular and working on a sloppy codebase was taking longer to fix bugs than just rewriting, so I did just that. This also was a big change as it changed how I was storing files. Before, I just zipped the files and stored them to be accessible, which worked out fine, but that cuts the storage space I have to work with in half. Obviously this is not going to work as the only way to keep this service alive is to keep pricing low, which means storing files as efficiently as possible. This update changed that.

• Downloads were all wiped due to complete schema change.

• Removed Nebula Satellite

• Added Quasar Satellite

• Torrents are no longer stored as zips. Rather they are stored as their raw files, which allows downloads to be much faster and more efficiently store files.

• Allowed 16 connections per IP rather than allowing 8 per download.

• Removed torrent file picker, as it introduced too much complexity, and usually was only used to squeeze under the 100gb limit for free and essential users.

• Removed email notifications. This will be back later. Currently only notifications on the website are sent.
