I miss the time when torrentz.com (now https://torrentz.eu/ https://torrentz.eu/ ) used to have magnet links. Now I have to click through to piratebay (or worse).
Although I don't plan on using this, nice job. One point - I don't think you should move the search bar around. It would be better if it was in the same place all the time, whether there are results or not.
- nddrylliog 14y agoFair point about the search bar, we'll try to think of it in the redesign. Do you have any idea why torrentz pulled magnet links? Seems insane that linking to sites with .torrent files is easier to defend (legally) than having directly magnet links.
- rplnt 14y agoMaybe someone got scared? I don't know.. but my guess would be a better CTR on sponsored links that are shown alongside trackers.
- nddrylliog 14y agoAh, fair point. The Torrentz guy seems paranoid indeed (lots of disclaimers everywhere) but that seems to serve him well, it's been online for 8 years. Also, hamsters! http://torrentz.eu/img/hamster.jpg http://torrentz.eu/img/hamster.jpg
- petitmiam 14y agorplnt, you should try using a magnet link extension (or greasemonkey script) for your browser. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dmknbldjfdgmfecaaiapjfcpofncdlmh https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dmknbldjfdgmfecaai...
