After a certain point, you get a sense of which release groups to trust or not.

Not to mention you can just open the download page from within qBittorrent.

I had no idea! As much as I appreciate TPB, their ads are cursed.

You browse torrent sites without uBlock Origin?

This a good point but, do you browse torrent sites? There are much better tools available these days, than torrent sites. I mean, it was always the case that Usenet was quicker but even with that, there's options available such as the *Arr stack.

You use anything on the web without uBlock Origin?

They are cursed even with it.

wtf you talk about? here's my example of searching latest euphoria episode:

i.postimg.cc/tJ2tMJYm/pb-example.jpg

Do you see any ads there?

You mean you don't use Firefox? Then that's on you bro!!


They all do have auto firing things that would not necessarily show on a screenshot. It's a cat and mouse game between these sites and filter maintainers.

But even for those I recommend the popup blocker strict extension.


I only used Rutracker and Rarbg (rip), TPB felt sketchier. I wonder what's the "prime" English-language public tracker now? 1337?

1337 is OK. Rarbg too. For movies, nothing beats YTS imo.

I might be misremembering, but wasn't YIFY/YTS known for their awful quality ultra compressed releases? I thought they closed down many years ago tho, so no idea if they are the same people or if they still focus on low-quality releases.

tpb.party works without JS. It's the main mirror I use.
