I used to use thepiratebay.org, but recently it seems the quality of the site has degraded.
I sometimes also use 1337xx.to , but that site seems to have a very small selection.
Note that I couldn’t find an answer to this question in the wiki + meathread, so if the answer is already there, please direct my attention to it 🙏🏴☠️
It’s mostly been fine-ish for anything that can’t be infected with viruses (music, video, roms, etc - usually.) There are way better options today but as long as you’re not going there for software it’s still usable.
But why. There are so many good, legit places. Why do you feel you owe them your allegiance. Even despite knowing it’s a scam. This is the weirdest behaviour to me, sorry.
While the suggestions by other commenters to use Qbittorrent’s search functionality combined with add-ons (including one for Jackett integration) is a great way to index public tracker releases, I’d also recommend periodically checking for open signups to TorrentLeech given that some releases are either better seeded there or have higher fidelity video and audio tracks. Some private trackers are even better, but TorrentLeech is among the easiest to join.
you have to enable them before first use, but they are already there. you don’t need to bring in your own list of what you want to install (unless you want to expand on the default list).
maybe this can vary in time or between platforms or something, i am not quite sure about that, but this is how my ubuntu installation behaved.
I know when I set it up I had to add them manually, but that was years ago. Maybe this is a new thing, or maybe your specific Ubuntu instillation was a custom fork of QB that included a bunch from the start.
(I really think it’s unlikely that base QB would include them, since it would make it more obvious that they intend it to be used for piracy - something they’d want to avoid for legal reasons. Yeah, I know, but I’d rather they not get shut down.)
i have been using qb for a long time and i don’t remember ever having to manually add them. i have also been using it on a windows machine, directly downloaded from qb website. it is definitely not some ubuntu customization.
I like to use rutracker.org. The tracker is public but the search is behind a registration form. Based on my experience it has some content I was unable to find on English trackers. Additionally, InsaneZemRes (a no compression repacker, good if internet speed/bandwidth aren’t of a concern) uploads new releases to there instantly, so very comfortable if I’m looking for a game that came out recently.
In case I can’t find what I’m looking for on rutracker, torrentgalaxy.to is a good alternative. They have a lot of the RARBG torrents and I think that’s where most ex-RARBG users migrated.
Apart from private trackers, rutracker seems to be the best for lossless movies in 1080p. Big selection of blueray remuxes/rips which are often missing from the other public indexers, likely because causal users prefer 2gb files to >20gb.
the plugins are already built-in in the standard installation, you just have to enable them before first use and that is it. after that you just use the search box.
Bitsearch is a good indexer for finding torrents from across multiple sites, but check the source as best you can, and then use a VPN and scan the files after.
Just another douche trying to capitalize on misspellings or close enough URLs to shill their ads, or javascript mouse clicks, etc. There are tons of imposter sites for the bigger public trackers.
They just want ad clicks. It’s a really basic scam. Duplicate the website. Flood it with javascript mouse clicks and you can get an ad impression for every 3/4 clicks. Multiply that by thousands you can make decent coin.
In general, I recommend adding Jackett to qbittorrent. It works great and is much better than the standard search add-ons.
For this specific request, AudioBook Bay has a 30 lesson Dutch section (in a large general pack) and is dated 2022 (also available via Jackett in qbittorrent).
