Some time ago I gave up using sonarr & radarr to watch (popular) tv shows and movies because the search just stopped giving decent results. Now I heard that rarbg has also quit.

So I am wondering, is this still a thing?

Rarbg is a PITA with its random rate limiting. I wish they'd let me sign up and get an API key (Even if that meant paying for it) because I'd rather have rarbg than rely on whatever arse trackers I have the time and energy to sign up for.

I know people say "oh just get private trackers" but it's so much effort, especially when my piracy philosophy is that it should be as painless as possible to access content. I just want to get a tracker's info, add it to Prowlarr, and start downloading. The requirement of posting and becoming a community member when I deal with my seedbox/prowlarr setup once every couple of months (if that) is far too labour-intensive imo.

Rarbg is gone unless I'm mistaken.
