minus-squareBrickfrog@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·edit-211 days agoYup. The Tixati torrent client is also developed by the same dev team (mainly Kevin Hearn I believe). I think that the timeline was WinMX, then Tixati, then Fopnu, then DarkMX. (Tixati / Fopnu / DarkMX are still actively developed and updated)
