I normally use usenet, but I use torrent as backup. I heard of https://ext.to/, what are other that are good?
Fuck a duck. This is always how I find out about shit like this. Damnit. I was all ready and have time now to do my yearly summer download spree…
I guess 1337x?
Edit: Added the soundbyte that expresses my frustration:(
Private trackers
get on red first and then get to power user, that gets you a path to invites to many others
Yeah let me get on a private tracker so I can be harassed about not spending enough money on donations or not seeding enough or my favorite I stop using the website for a month and get banned for not using the website enough. I’d rather pay Netflix and Disney and watch ads than deal with that garbage.
skill issue
I don’t even go on the trackers, everything’s automated
ssh…
Exactly what I was gonna recommend. IPtorrents hasn’t let me down for 90% of content.
Only thing I specifically used TG for was comics, as that’s the site GetComics had their comic packs on, but since they went down they seem to just be self-hosting their torrent files. Anything else I download I usually run through Prowlarr and search a dozen or two public trackers at a time lol.
Tbp
it’s a honeypot
Use one of the clones/proxies, and if you’re doing what you should be, they’ll have no idea who the fuck you are anyway.
https://rutracker.org/ works well
I usually just get my torrents from archive.org… Am I pirating wrong?
If you get what you want without getting viruses into your computer, no.
I mainly use LimeTorrent and 1337x, I get 99% percent of my stuff from those two sites. Another one worth mentioning is DigitalCore Club. It’s a private tracker, but it has open signups quite frequently. It doesn’t actually have a ton of content on it, however it has a pretty good requests section. So if you can’t find something anywhere you can try to ask for it there.
DigitalCore Private trackers are a waste of time and money, piracy is about saving money and private trackers will nag you about not spending enough money and not using enough of your bandwidth and 99% of them don’t have anything better than public trackers.
Qbittorrent + search plugins is the way to go:
https://github.com/qbittorrent/search-plugins/wiki/Unofficial-search-plugins
Or Real-Debrid instead of Qbittorrent if you don’t mind paying ~$3/mo USD for the convenience of 1Gbps download speeds and no seeders to rely on.
What do you use to search RD with?
1337x is still kicking.
1337x.to works well too. If you use a website translator, like Firefox Translate, rutracker is great too.
Otherwise, private torrent sites (e.g. TorrentLeech) are the best addition to Usenet.
Keeping ratio is pretty easy if you set up Cross-Seed. It finds torrents matching your local files (e.g. Usenet downloads) and adds them to your torrent client without using additional space or downloading them again.
How would I go about setting up cross seed
It takes a bit of time and careful reading until it’s set up.
For matching existing data you need to set up dataDirs and partial matchMode. Ideally your local files are organized (e.g. TRaSH guide) to improve cross-seeds ability to find matches. If you need help there’s a Discord linked on their website.
Honestly I just got a few fresh free-leech torrents a while back, seeded them for a week, and built up enough surplus to not have to worry about ratio for the foreseeable future
Yes. If you’ve got enough buffer anyway there’s not much reason to set up Cross-Seed.
Depending on the tracker this can work better or worse. E.g. I was on a tracker with minimal free leech content, so Cross-Seed helped me a lot.
What benefits does Usenet have over Debrid? I’ve been meaning to try it for years, but after finding out about Debrid services, I don’t see the point when I can have a 1Gbps direct download to any torrent I want, without having to rely on seeds.
How about all of them in one?
You can use any torrent client with search included. For example: qbittorrent, frostwire, etc…
Anyway check FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH! https://fmhy.net/videopiracyguide#torrent-sites
What i really miss is the hot picks and new section (even from rarbg). If someone has an idea for that i’m listening.
Any private torrent tracker worth their server hosting has a staff picks section.
What’s in it depends on the goal/theme of the tracker

How did u find 25 public trackers that aren’t blocked by cloud flare?
25 private + public trackers.
Ratio is 5:1 for meFlamesolverr still works. Not consistently, but it mostly still works.
…it isn’t down for me…?
you’re using a copycat site, torrentgalaxy.to is the only official domain
What happened? Why is it down 😭
There was also torrentgalaxy.mx when the site was alive.
