Where do you find those? I use 1337 and dht search engines. Can't be bothered to fiddle with private trackers. Wondering if you found something better.

- Anonyneko 4mo agoE.g. ext.to aggregates torrents from a lot of public trackers, very often you can find good releases there.
- Retr0id 4mo agoRARBG used to be the way to go, until they shut down. I'm not aware of a good public replacement.
- stevenwoo 4mo agothepiratebay is fine they just don’t run indexes often so searches often fail for stuff just uploaded within last hour or two. Limetorrents updates indices frequently but uses ad providers that try to hijack your clicks and presses so it takes three or four clicks to get one click that isn’t hijacked. There is a bit of non overlap between those two sites.
- nobleach 4mo agoSounds like something that a browser like Brave was built to combat. I haven't visited the site in question but for a lot of the ad-heavy sites I do visit, I jump over to Brave to deal with the nonsense.

- Retr0id 4mo agoWhatever this is, it's not RARBG.
- TFNA 4mo agoThat’s not RARBG. That’s a quasi-domain squatter trying to lure people in with the name of a legendary community, but just showing the same crap results as any other public torrent aggregator and presumably loading it with ads (that I mercifully don’t see with Firefox uBlock Origin) in order to profit.
- Klaster_1 4mo agoNot a rarbg without daily scene music releases.
- wise_blood 4mo agoyou can find the sqlite dump of their database no trackers, but the hash is enough to find seeds on dht everything pre-2023 just works
- sporedro 4mo agoI honestly wouldn’t bother with public trackers. They work great for debrid services with something like kodi or stremio but if you want to “own” or build your collection you have much better options 1. Private trackers - people seed, they have rules on uploads and actually moderate 2. Usenet is still alive and thriving for this. 3. Libraries still exist and you can rent and rip media there 4.Internet Archive is a great resource for old stuff 5. Just buy physical copies and rip em. Can check eBay etc.
- saganus 4mo agoHow do you join private trackers from scratch? I used to do this kind of things decades ago, but there was also still a few things not ripped and uploaded you had _some_ chance of participating. Nowadays I imagine ~everything under the sun is already ripped, so how can you contribute to seed ratio? (or is that not even a thing anymore?)
- vuln 4mo agouse their RSS feed + a seed box to automatically grab stuff as it’s posted some sites have ratio free for large files to get them seeded faster. at least that’s what I did a decade plus ago.
- pirta 4mo agoI was looking for this european movie from 10 years ago only last month, could not find it anywhere on line, streaming or torrent. I'm pretty confident there is still a lot of stuff missing. hey there's a project idea: a "todo list" for rippers that scrapes imdb and checks what's not in pirate bay (and then looks for dvd's on ebay / libraries)
- sporedro 4mo agoPublic trackers like the piratebay face a lot of issues with retention. If it’s not mainstream or recent people often don’t seed or maintain it. If you join a private tracker there’s ones dedicated to keeping older sources like that a live! For really obscure content, internet archive, your library, usenet or even eBay are the go to!

- Unai 4mo agoI commented somewhere else already, but you can search directly from qBittorrent. Search by title, then filter by "Remux" or sort by size. Keep in mind tho that a blu-ray release must exist in the first place, and that some 4k blu-rays are just not very good to begin with (upscaling and what not).
- Klaster_1 4mo agorutracker.org is pretty good and is still going strong despite its age.
