Yeah Itnwas subtle, I nearly scrolled past without making the connection!

Not sure heaps of people these days remember Event Horizon!

My first thought was pipe it to /dev/null but it sounds like you want it to linger for a bit before it goes into the shredder

Sorry about them!

Moving away would seriously hurt bottom line as not everyone will bother setting up accounts. Moving to crypto would shut them down, the amount of people I know that pay with crypto for anything is almost zero despite having a tech-savvy friends group.

Tech illiteracy today is insane. I had to help my parents connect up the TV as a kid, and now I have to help my kids connect up their TV/PC. Obviously a lot wrong with that statement (I. E. Not everyone leans techy) but it does make me feel like my age group is the only ones that have a vauge idea what is going on

Definietly not, but it dropped from the ‘mainstream’ knowledge base and people who only knew screaming are ‘discovering’ it now.

Wow they’ve made in 29 days so far, kudos

That’s cool, but what about a RSS forn War Thubder military leaks?

They absolutely can of course. However, its easier for them to go after the easier fish that are public and advertise/make profit off work, much the same way a theif will levitate toward the least secure/most attractive house to rob. That said, country makes a huge difference - risk profile between a US citizen and say a Romanian is very different.

• keep a eye on https://redlib.trux.dev/r/OpenSignups/ for sites that briefly open for anyone to signup
• keep a eye on https://lemmy.world/c/opensignups (not as trafficed as reddit sadly, might be better lemmy alternatives around)
• Look for sites that do IRC interviews (MAM, RED, OPS)
• Invite from a trusted friend (Note: I recommend being slow and steady and avoiding invites, its safer to ‘make it your own way’ - You can potentially lose your account(s) if someone youve trusted does something dodgy like buy/sell accounts - you have to absolutely 100% trust the person longterm and anyone theyve invited)
• Never ask for invites, especially publically/DM’s/unsolicited.
• Once into a reputable site and rank up a little through seeding/account time, look for invite/power user forums to request invites to other sites. This is how you branch out over time and ‘recruit’ your way through trackers.
• If your into ebooks MAM is a excelent starting place, its incredibly easy and forgiving and has a good invite section to springboard from (and friendly/welcoming community).
• TL is really good, has lots of freeleech packs, and is open semi-regulary, often when another tracker has issues/downtime.

reAdarr sorry. A radarr shutdown would have sent a lot of us into a meltdown

Really can’t say that’s the case. A lot of PTs have bonuses points and other things for long term seeding, and you can then buy upload or reduce download, or regular site wide free-leech, or free-leech over xGB, or Perma freeleech while you seed 1tb. You can do perfectly fine on a home connection as long as you don’t mind keeping some torrents seeding (like you ideally should be to share back) You can go from open reg PTs to mid or elite teir PTs off a home connection and no seedbox (if you out in some elbow grease).

Stick to private trackers, the risk of being caught is dramatically lower (harder to get it, smaller user base, companies target the big public ones)

Consider reviewing https://trash-guides.info/ which helps pickup best releases, and yeah review/consider your trackers, some are horrible for zero quality cobtrol

TY for the post, been keeping a eye out for open reg so I don’t need to accept invite (personal pref to prefer to wait and recruit/open reg in) I’ll get FNP added to my cross-seed setup so I can start getting my brr on

Webrings are back baby

Its 100% free with a totally optional donation. Appreciate there’s been a lot of concern about their partnering with FUTO, but I checked heavily into it and I’m comfortable there won’t be a rug pull.

Ugh I mean I know we have block and are encouraged to do it, but there’s only so much I feel like doing. I’m at a point of nearly instant banning any community that sounds copy/paste from reddit

Not convinced the masses will go back, they will keep flocking to whatever’s hyped and new. Many countries only know web2.0 as the internet and never experienced the wild west, their world is Facebook and whatsapp
