Which sources is your usual "go to"? (Btw how do you save all the megathread links for offline? In case this goes down) (sh.itjust.works)

I usually use use ThePirateBay for video media (Movies / TV shows).

EBook: Library Genisys

Audiobooks: Audiobook Bay

Android APK: Sometimes I just google the .apks (and .obb files), but if find it on the ones listed in the megathread, I use those first.

Not sure if I'm doing piracy correctly

Edit: And also, what file formats is best?

Like, video media is 99% of the time a .mkv, so I'm assuming thats the most popular. But is x264 or x265 better. Like, I don't want to waste storage or wait too long before I can watch something, so what is the best storage to quality size?

And eBooks, .pdf .mobi .epub .azw3 wtf I'm confused

Audiobooks, there are m4b, and mp3

There is one series of books that I can only find .azw3 on Libgen, and nothing on F-Droid even opens that file format.

Yea I think I don't know what I'm doing.

Yea idk what tools to use so I'm just manually copying the "source" tab of the wikis so that the actual links get copied and not just the fancy hyperlink display text.

Like... its not all on one page, its multiple separate pages, so I have to go to each category to copy it, kinda annoying... 😓
