Not sure when this happened, but I just noticed I can't download any torrents or magnet links on 1337x without clicking Download without VPN.
At first, I wasn't even seeing the bottom half of that popup since uBlock was blocking it. When I added a custom rule to block the popup, that totally broke the download buttons, so I had to disable uBlock.
Is anyone else noticing this? I'm not going to disable my adblocker on freaking 1337x, I'll just stop going to 1337x 😆
Unless that's some error, what were they thinking?
Yeah it's hidden but not. Super weird because it's so darn good at it's job.
It's under the "View" drop down menu as "Search Engine" and it literally just adds a tab to let you search and import torrents right in the software.
Nyaa I think I needed to add it as a plugin but there is actually a super convenient little button on the bottom right of the search tab called "Search Plugins" which has a link to all of them and then you just install it via the URL copy and pasted into the box.
Takes like maybe 2-3 minutes if you know where all the buttons are so maybe assume 15 just for the shock value of never knowing this existed and figuring out the button placement but very low effort.
Let me know if you need help finding the buttons or anything.
