I see trackers there that have shut down officially and were 'revived' by unknown individuals, so be sure to wear a condom!

    Some people say lamb skin is like wearing nothing at all, and it harkens back to the earliest known condom, a goat's bladder.

    One for sure is RARBG. Others might be TPB and KAT. I haven't heard of a lot of others which can always be dicey if you don't know how well these sites are moderated if at all.

    Yeah the rarbg def has some moderation issues. I tried grabbing an episode of a show the day before it came out. Only rarbg had it up, and there was an obscure archive file inside it

    only torrent software I'd recommend

    and not just for this reason but also because you can run it headless over a webUI ... self hosting is an addiction

    Running qBittorrent over web UI was a game changer. I was running it off a personal PC for the longest time (usually my newest gaming machine) but finally built a dedicated server.

    Genuinely the only way to deal with private tracker requirements without a seedbox.

    Why do this instead of Jackett?

    Jackett I think is a better solution. There is a crazy amount of sources to search/select from and setting up the API key is just editing a file.

    I used Jackett until I had to transfer some split up programs to the same machine. Some indexers needed Flaresolverr but it was broken, because my version of Jackett was a service install instead of docker. Anyway it made sense to switch to Prowlarr because I already use Sonarr and Radarr

    Isn't jackett like a server thing?

    Jackett can be run on any computer. It doesn't need a server or any serious hardware. It can probably be run on a $20 Pi. It's just allows you to interact with trackers via API calls.

    I use Prowlarr via Docker now a days. It's provides a much better experience to interact with othe instances of ARRs.

    great but how does the plugins for dodi and fitgirl repacks work, afaik they are not trackers but do upload on them?

  • I've long preferred tixati but these might be fun to try. Repository explicitly warns about safety. Some fairly big names here that I imagine IPs could be checked against their websites? Anyone here vouch for any of the lesser known ones?
