IPT is still running and easy to get into, Torrentleech is another, just as easy and almost a clone of IPT. Other than these, there is Milky which is new and open for now. These will suffice for most of your needs.

Free flow of knowledge is absolutely essential. Of all the things that should be accessible knowledge and the opportunity for every person to realize their full potential should be a must.

I have two instances running, one public and one completely local. And having a domain is just convenient but not necessary.
