https://pirates-forum.org/Thread-ThePirateBay-Want-Trusted-VIP-Status-Pink-Green-Skull-See-Here
I already know, but I feel like this post belonged here. Trust the skulls, I have usually found original seeders seeding the torrent alone for years at time (1 seeder) and they get the job done.
Green Skull, Pink Skull, Number of seeders column (what else?) are the things you should care for while downloading torrents.
Is thepiratebay still worth using? I haven’t visited in years
I’ve been using TPB regularly for over a decade. Goes down now and then but usually back up in a day or 2 tops
Have you found the content to be reliable/trustworthy? Last I looked, it was just full of uploaded-yesterday highly suspicious links.
This is where I have been finding anything I really need to torrent.
I stopped for a couple of years during the peak of kickass torrent, when I came back TPB had moved to an onion domain but it seems the quality is higher than in the 2010s.
What are you the cia?
For movies (rip rarbg) I use TorrentLeech
For music I use Soulseek
For books I use irc.irchighway.net #ebooks
I recently purchased a Usenet subscription+indexer to plug up any gaps, and it seems to be a pretty good option as well (although not free).
For software, I just try to always go open source when I can, and I don’t really pirate games. I find executables to just be too risky.
