The fact it wasn’t open source probably didn’t help, but it did have a modified VLC client and was truly P2P.
BiglyBT (aka Vuze previously Azureus) has a decentralised chat feature akin to IRC. It’s not very active but it’s technically very interesting and still working. Rooms can be based on per-torrent, language, region, general purpose and even custom.
