A lot of my files were shitty 480p versions of movies from the Napster days. Now they're all 1080p, with a few 720p exceptions (mainly tv series episodes). All in all 500 something files in total. Now just watching uTorrent slowly download them all. Hopefully my VPN keeps the eyes off of me...

I'm sure you'll be fine.

Are you using a private tracker? I probably would for that much stuff.

Honestly I'm not sure. I'm using a VPN. Does that count? Lol

No. Private tracker means you have to be part of a special club to get the torrent link, not just find it on nyaa or whatever

How would one get involved in something like that?

Idfk + frankly it’s probably not worth it cause they typically have expectations of being hardcore and not just casually downloading and seeding. What are you looking for? Have you looked on soulseek?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

No, I haven't heard of soulseek before.

That's pretty much just for music

It’s advertised as a music platform but it has whatever users decide to make available. In addition to the majority of my music library, I’ve gotten movies and hentai manga from it lol. I’ve seen applications and games on it too. Joining it and sharing your media/other stuff is a great way to give back
