some times i wish lemmy had awards
I am so glad we don’t, modern Reddit awards are such an assault on the eyes lol.
the gold, the genius lightbulp and the star awards were actually useful, highlighting the best answer for question on r/math or r/eli5 …ect and F u/spez comments nowadays
I had them filtered out through injected css.
Such a visual and layout distraction with no use.
Would be great if money goes to instance owners and devs
Copying an older comment of mine,
Download qBittorrent. Download Jackett. Configure Jackett to work inside qBittorrent. You now have a way to search hundreds of trackers all at once within seconds and find literally anything you want.
Does Prowlarr work in a similar way?
Yes, it but doesn’t integrate into qBittorrent like Jackett does. Jackett is more for manual searching, prowlarr integrates better with other *arr services.
*arr services
it’s been years and the naming convention didn’t click for me until now. that’s hilarious, thanks for the giggle
For me, prowlarr works much better together with qBittorrent, sonarr and radarr. + Add Flood to the list for easier mobile friendly UI for qBittorrent.
I’m using the official qbittorrent remote app. I like the UI better. And use Nzb360 to manage my *arr apps remotely
I didnt know about qBittorrent Remote App. I have to try it when I got home. Flood is missing some functionalities and it looks like it’s not maintained anymore. Also, I need to check this Nzb360 app. Thanks for suggestions.
PC game osts:KhinsiderDownloader
Switch dumping: nxdumptool + tinfoil
Wii U ripping: Wii U USB helper or dumpling
PS3 backups: nopaystatoon
Pre-patched rom hacks: CDRomance
Other backups or manuals and scans: Internet archive or vimm’s lair
Oh wow, I forgot about khinsider!
I love CDRomance. Definitely recommend it not just for pre-patched ROM hacks, but also just their normal ROMS as well since I have never had any problems with the site besides the time I accidentally went to a most likely virus infested clone site.
My main suggestion is to make your pirate searches using Yandex. Most book names “pdf” will give a result. You can also filter to only show sites of a specific language.
I mainly use yandex to search for image sources, it works better than sauce.nao for anime!
PDF isn’t an ebook format which is why EPUB is usually preferred.
You know I just thought about sharing my entire piracy bookmark folder (while excluding some subfolders and/or sites) on Brave Android, is there any way to do so?
Most browsers have a setting that lets you export your favorites as an HTML file.
Sorry for the late reply I got busy with other things, anyway here is my piracy folder just import the file using your browser
Also,
it’s unfortunately not the case with the mobile versionand the desktop version doesn’t allow for exporting select bookmarks, I used Edge to drag and drop the folder into it then edited it then hit exportAlternatively, there are browser extensions that can do that
Just use firefox sync all automated
- StaxRip (Windows only)
- A terminal emulator
- Jellyfin (think FOSS plex alternative)

For any metal/rock music, I use getmetal.club
For comics I use getcomics.org
EDIT: took away the www, and actually spelt “get” right which should fix the links. Sorry everyone!
Another good sources for metal are metalarea.org and metal-tracker.com
And Soulseek.
For comics I use www.getcomics.org
Huh, I’m getting a ngnix website 😅
Fixed the links everyone! Sorry!
XDCC
What is that?
If you have ever heard of IRC it uses that network to directly send files to you. Basically you need an IRC client then you message a bot for the file(s) you want it to send to you. There are xdcc search engines like sunxdcc and you can usually find books, audio, anime, etc.
Im sorry for asking this but what is IRC?
Its an old school chat protocol. You can try it for yourself kiwiirc is a website that lets you chat with IRC. You need to pick a network, Rizon is a good network to start with. There are a bunch of different commands you can use but the only ones i found useful are /msg to send a message and /join to join a channel.
For the downloading part you need a client that supports XDCC, and then you can use these commands with your bot of choice
Thanks! Will definitely have to check it out once my brain remembers to remember this.
IRC is a simple text chat protocol.
DCC is an extension for file transfer.
XDCC is a text command definition/protocol for interacting with irc chat bots offering files through DCC.
Are there better web search engines than https://www.xdcc.eu/?
I like sunxdcc.com and i think xdcc.rocks is another option but i havent tried it
This list comes in useful for people who are not tech savvy to stream shit. Just make sure they have some form of adblock for sure. https://fmhy.pages.dev/videopiracyguide/#dedicated-hosts
private trackers in general
The thing with private trackers is that theren’t that many more people who can use it
Not following what you mean by this comment?
Probably that there’s not many people with access to private trackers
I’m in some pretty large ones and I’ve never found a dead torrent yet. I also get great speeds on anything I DL
What are the benefits of private trackers for someone who only pirates widely popular media and games?
nothing. Private trackers are overrated. Unless you want some obscure things.
Is there a private tracker for good quality versions of really terrible movies?
Things like The Room and Silent Night Deadly Night 2. I feel like there must be a niche bad movie lovers community…
Ptp literally has the biggest collection of any private tracker I’ve ever used. Even the most niche movies u can always find it with good seeders
If only you can get there. I’m trying to
Lol I have a feeling that getting in there as a total newbie like me is a stretch…
MakeMKV
For Mac users have a look at Subtler
Great software, used it a lot. Also Handbrake.
Same. I just wish the Linux version let me drag and drop like it does in Windows.
