I remember using it a lot a few years ago in the early 2000s and I wonder if that's still used...?

If it is, which client should one be using?

I use it, but due to it being more cumbersome, I go to IRC first. If I can't find it on IRC, I can usually get it from DC++.

Are you using xdcc.eu or sunxdcc.com, or are you searching directly through IRC on each of your preferred servers?

[–] noisypine@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Little bit of both. Usually I start with sunxdcc and xdcc.eu, but if I can't find it, I search in the chats. Sometimes not all packs are listed and the search engines.

Thanks for the answer. That's mostly been my strategy as well. Sunxdcc has some stuff indexed that xdcc.eu is missing, it seems. Do you know of any networks/channels that are not even indexed by these sites?

[–] noisypine@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't. I would imagine ones that aren't indexed, probably aren't because they are private, but that's a guess.

You're probably right about that.
