For me it’s fine for tv shows & movies. I also use ed2k/kad network.

Wow, ed2k is still alive and kicking? I don’t think I’ve used them since like 2005.

Yeah, it works like a charm, by the way I use Mldonkey, but you have also emule & amule.

Not only is it still alive, but it even stands on the mountaintop looking down on BT

I like sites that are aggregators of content (no one site, necessarily). I think the best move is to find release groups you like the quality of and trust. From there, find out where they upload. I was a big fan of RARBG remuxes (x265) and RARBG-affiliated TV release groups, so it took a bit to find acceptable and consistent replacements. It’s worth the effort.

Who did you replace them with?

For movies, PSA slotted right in the quality/size hole RARBG left for x265 movies. There’s groups with better quality at higher filesizes (like QxR), but the ~2GB 1080p stuff PSA puts out suits my needs well.

TV is a little eh. XEN0N is where I ended up, but definitely isn’t on par with ION10/ION265. I haven’t found a great catch-all replacement. But I haven’t had to grab a ton of TV lately, to be honest.

You’d probably like Pahe.in releases, I also landed on PSA (I use it for both movies & tv) and Pahe is pretty close to it in quality/size. Pahe doesn’t have torrents tho, but I think their GDrive and Mega links are pretty easy to get to; compared to some of PSA’s direct downloads you only need one real countdown and less than 10 clicks to get the file

I just search for “name of movie + download” in a non-Google search engine. Google does censorship right, but the others are usually good.

Doesn’t duckduckgo also censor it since it uses Bing as the primary search algorithm?
