I normally use usenet, but I use torrent as backup. I heard of https://ext.to/, what are other that are good?
1337x.to has treated me well for the past few years. I love the active comment sections. It’s just like TPB was in the early days.
1337x is still kicking.
You can use any torrent client with search included. For example: qbittorrent, frostwire, etc…
Anyway check FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH! https://fmhy.net/videopiracyguide#torrent-sites
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.
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:(
I still use the pirate bay, is it not recommended?
I don’t think it’s really considered very safe anymore, although it is still very popular.
Safe about what? I get movies all the time and they are… movies?
If you download games and executable files, you’re an idiot, but it’s been like this for more than 20 years.
