Gnutella network is definitely still active, athough not even close to the level it once was. It has plenty of drawbacks but one of the few advantages over torrents is that it doesn't need trackers. Just enough clients online to connect with one another.

You can even still find Shareaza with a quick search.

I've been hsaring about Gnutella, but have never heard of anyone actually using it. Is it still a thing? How do one get started with it?

install gtk-gnutella and run it. Configure to share your files, leave it runing and that's it.
