"Fellow pirates" that's the most suspicious ass thing you could possibly say here
How do you do, fellow pirates?
Wonderful weather we’re having, fellow pirates
Arrr matey, hav' a swig o' grog!
Nice try totally not in the FBI Garry!!!
Shhhhh, it’s called the fediverse for a reason
Copying an older comment of mine,
Download qBittorrent. Download Jackett. Configure Jackett to work inside qBittorrent. You now have a way to search hundreds of trackers all at once within seconds and find literally anything you want.
Does Prowlarr work in a similar way?
Yes, it but doesn't integrate into qBittorrent like Jackett does. Jackett is more for manual searching, prowlarr integrates better with other *arr services.

For Manga/Comics/Webtoons/Etc.:
Tachidesk on desktop
Tachiyomi on mobile.
These are both fantastic and allow you to grab manga, comics, etc. from pretty much every site you can think of to have it all in one place.
For Movies/TV/Anime:
Kodi + Debrid + Arctic Horizon 2/TMDbHelper + Fen + Otaku (resources: 1, 2; screenshots: album)
I love this. I can watch literally anything I want as if it was a netflix-like service, and don't have to use a VPN. Can even throw this on a shield/chromecast/firestick.
edit: tachidesk doesn't have a fit-to-page feature, but you can just use stylus with this:
img{
height:100vh !important; /* fit height of screen */
min-width:0 !important; /* also needed for fit height */
}
edit 2: Also, not really piracy per se, but Syncplay is great for watching downloaded content with friends.
PC game osts:KhinsiderDownloader
Switch dumping: nxdumptool + tinfoil
Wii U ripping: Wii U USB helper or dumpling
PS3 backups: nopaystatoon
Pre-patched rom hacks: CDRomance
Other backups or manuals and scans: Internet archive or vimm's lair
https://movie-web.app/ Its pretty good.
This feels like something that should be used with a VPN. Be careful.
Well, since it is just a an organised frontend for a multiple HLS streaming sources, I wouldn't worry about my IP leaking (it's not P2P).
Your ISP can only see the domains which you are connecting to, not the content that is transferred (cuz https).
If you are still paranoid, just route it through tor! It's just a website after all. (ik it's slow but it works!)
Except it's often not your ISP going after you, and https does not protect against everything. A few years ago there was a scandal in Germany when a moneygrubbing law firm took out ads on a porn site to get user IPs and the referer header, then sent demands to users for illegally downloading copyrighted material.
A court initially rubber-stamped the requests for IP info from the law firm.
A better judge/court clarified the law (streaming is fine in Germany) in that case and there were hopefully consequences for the law firm and the lawyers involved, but some suckers paid hush money first.
My main suggestion is to make your pirate searches using Yandex. Most book names "pdf" will give a result. You can also filter to only show sites of a specific language.
PDF isn't an ebook format which is why EPUB is usually preferred.
I mainly use yandex to search for image sources, it works better than sauce.nao for anime!
You know I just thought about sharing my entire piracy bookmark folder (while excluding some subfolders and/or sites) on Brave Android, is there any way to do so?
Most browsers have a setting that lets you export your favorites as an HTML file.
XDCC
What is that?
If you have ever heard of IRC it uses that network to directly send files to you. Basically you need an IRC client then you message a bot for the file(s) you want it to send to you. There are xdcc search engines like sunxdcc and you can usually find books, audio, anime, etc.
For any metal/rock music, I use getmetal.club
For comics I use getcomics.org
EDIT: took away the www, and actually spelt "get" right which should fix the links. Sorry everyone!
private trackers in general
The thing with private trackers is that theren't that many more people who can use it
This list comes in useful for people who are not tech savvy to stream shit. Just make sure they have some form of adblock for sure. https://fmhy.pages.dev/videopiracyguide/#dedicated-hosts
I still use Vuze. I never see ANYONE mention it. But I've used it for near 15 years.
Is there like any advantage of vuze over something more mainstream like qbitorrent?
