Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

torrents automated with all the Arrs

Torrent. Started using torrents in the 2000's. Stopped for a while, but now I'm back to torrenting. Searching for and curating my collection is part of the fun for me.

Well to be fair it depends on personal preference rather than a technology being better than other. I used to torrent everything but nowadays I just subscribed to RD and with Stremio or Kodi + Trakt I got everything I need without having to worry for searching.

Neither. Real Debrid

I use sonarr, radarr, overseer, prowlarr, and a bunch of other shit.

I exclusively use torrents. Everything is automated and in dockers. No reason to use Usenet IMO. It gets me nothing torrents don’t already do.

Torrents, I like the community and indefinite retention. And with 1gbps home connections becoming more common staying in ratio has become way easier.

I rely on usenet for 90+% of content acquisition, but I have torrents for stuff I can't easily find or older content that is not recent release.

I see multiple private torrent tracker users in here. I primarily use Usenet, but is anyone willing to shed some light on the private torrent scene? Wouldn't mind having a backup for anything that fails on Usenet but don't have a clue where to even start research on good/reputable private trackers.

Torrents and muthafuckin' DC++!!!

Usenet ftw - i can never go back to torrenting

I'm using torrents much less since fmovies. I just stream my shows and movies now. Music is also getting harder to find so I went back to Soulseek. For everything else, I'm using Tribler, an open source torrent client using onion routing.

Its funny that you say "still using torrents" while the usenet is basically older than torrents

Been on torrent for many years, recently started using the *arr stack, it's fantastic. For torrents I source them from a private tracker, difference of quality and speed is night and day.

I’ve been on the torrents for ages but just started with Usenet this weekend. So I’m dual wielding with Usenet as first priority.

I just got Sonarr and Radarr setup with Overseerr and Jackett and got my family on Plex so we can cut the cord on Netflix. Overseerr supports downloading from Plex watchlists so they don’t even need to use Overseerr to auto download movies. I still need to figure out how to sort and download better ones since I’ve selected “seeders” as the download is sometimes prioritizing quality.

I’m in a private invite only torrent site, and most shows/movies have an amazing availability. Seeding is a requirement and becusee its private, my ISP doesn’t send me DMCA notices.

Torrent and ed2k/kad networks

sssh we don't talk about 𝗇 z b 𝗌

I've only heard good things about Usenet but personally, I can find almost anything I want via DDL so that's where it's at for me

Both configged on the *arrs.

Usenet. If only because I don't have access to any good private trackers and the public ones I used to use are dead. And I have access to good enough indexers to get the job done.

With my new setup though I run everything through a VPN tunnel so if I ever found some good trackers again I'd not be against it.

I use both actually. I find Drunken to be a great fallback if none of my PTs have the content.

I also use it to help upload season packs to fulfill requests on PTs on occasion.
