What about malware and other forms of infections? Is there a public trwacker that has safe content?
Don't forget Demonoid.

Most fakes are removed quickly these days, but you can always check the comment section to be sure.

For softwares i have find tehparadox and silenground really useful. On the two these ddl sites i have found most softwares i searched. You need an invite to join silentground.

@Codec Hi Codec! Could you clear out some of your inbox PMs? I tried to send you a PM but your inbox is full. I'd like to talk about silentground
What I use as public trackers:
extratorrent.cc
shaanig.org
rarbg.to
demonoid
With them I use semi-private ones which are
zamunda.net
rutracker.org
I would suggest ONE or TWO more private trackers just to sleep on.
IPT
TD
I would also suggest DDL sites like
TehParadox
Warez-BB
forum.mobilism.org
That's it. That's really what I use more than ALL private trackers combined and I "used to be" on many ones.
i'll use illusive's post as a template:
What I use as public trackers:
-
What I use as semi-private trackers:
rutracker.org (mostly for music)
RockBox - Index (http://psychocydd.co.uk/) (rock/metal music tracker, if needed)
What I use as DDL sites:
Warez-BB (if needed)
Your Dark Music Portal » Dark-World.ru (http://dark-world.ru/) (metal music)
https://scnlog.eu/ (scene stuff, if needed)
Scene Music | Scene-RLS.com 's Music Section (http://musics.scene-rls.net/) (scene music, if needed)
google/bing (if needed)
and a few other sites on rare occasions
the majority of these rls are easily found on (low-medium level) general private trackers

That silentground is very good for software. Found some stuff not available on TehParadox or Warez-BB. Nice find codec :top:
Still, I triple scan all downloads, and double scan on online servers. none of these DDL sites offer any assurance.
If only we had a windows equivalent of the brilliant Brokenstones tracker :smile:
These forums sites are a bit "annoying", need to have accounts on the filehosting sites (I often see that DDL forum posters only allow download for paid members).
And then you have the virus and their likes problem. whenever there is a keygen or a a patch to apply, my AV (Symantec End point) always see a threat, it's not easy to see if this is a false positive.
but you know, I keep telling myself: beggars can't be choosers

But Private are better
But Private are better
Exactly right. :top:
I don't know, all private anime trackers suck compared to nyaa.si :eyebrows:
Also, RIP old Demonoid and its admin Deimos :gfrown: There is a semi-official revival with some former staff, but it's not there yet. Zamunda is the closest thing we have, technically private but signups are always open and they have no ratio requirements in addition to magnet links.
RARBG and rutracker are pretty good.
The Pirate Bay recently did a site recode, but fell asleep halfway through; it now requires JavaScript to work at all, and is pretty buggy in any case. Torrentz2.eu is a good one that hasn't been mentioned in this thread. And the new Demonoid gets better every day.
Technically, none of these are public trackers as they only index torrents, but we know what we're talking about.
Also, TPB used to run their own trackers, and had a "VIP" one with reduced announce intervals for those who donated. AlsoČ, Torrents.ru RuTracker used to be private with signups only open a few hours a day, making it pretty tough to create an account if you were far enough from Russia. Thumbs up if you remember that on 2020 :smilie4:
@anon. what's the new address for Demonoid?
Damn, since 2017 ! Well, small update
What I use as public trackers:
rarbg.to / rarbgaccess.org
demonoid.is
1337x.to
With them I use semi-private ones which are
zamunda.net
rutracker.org
torrents-club.info

I would also suggest DDL sites like
intotheinter.net (ITI) (SIG) (Previously SoItGo.es)
TehParadox.net
warez-bb.org
forum.mobilism.org
sanet.st/community
board4all.biz
That's it. That's really what I use more than ALL private trackers combined and I "used to be" on many ones.

And who can ever forget pornolab :liebe_135:
And for DDL forums,
Snahp

Using cs.rin.ru as your main source of visual novels? You can't possibly not know about these!

General = RARBG & 1337x.to
Porn = Pornleech.io
https://unblocked-pw.github.io/
Nice find! But filesharing should be legalized already so that there's no need for proxies that spring up as quickly as they're blocked :wtinfoil:
Porn = Pornleech.io
Their peer numbers are inflated, 2D categories are rarely updated, and the site itself is glitchy with lots of timeouts and redirect loops. Other than that, they're a good non-automated aggregator of public torrents.

considering few days ago Youtube-dl from github was taken down i think shit is gonna go downfall with the services not investing in improving themselves but rather going anti pirates.
considering few days ago Youtube-dl from github was taken down
Even though the RIAA has amped up their takedowns lately, I consider action against YouTube downloaders a token effort in a losing battle, as many other programs and services exist for the task (jDownloader is my favorite) and YouTube ripping is the lowest tier of piracy anyway, comparable to taping songs from FM radio. However and at the same time, I can't deny this sets a dangerous precedent, and video grabbers also have legitimate non-infringing uses. So I'm glad to see that at least resistance has been very strong, with even GitHub's CEO speaking in favor of the project.
In a more general note, these efforts at copyright enforcement/"defending the artists" cross the bullshit line so often. Just a week ago Artzie Music's channel was closed due to a copyright infringement complaint... because they used short loops of classic anime as background for their original music. And musicians usually receive less than 15% of money made through record sales. Get real.

let this not be in 2020 or this year will become more worse then it was.

...or ever. In the meantime, my mirror list is ready.

Maybe the future of torrent sites lies in Tor onion services. Set everything up correctly and you won't have to worry about server raids or domain seizures.
Similar to other guys. Usually 1337x and RARBG. Sometimes Rutracker.

i like prostylex for searching manga/anime
https://filelisting.com/
Their database seems huge, but I recommend disabling JavaScript or using a content blocker to browse, because there's a guaranteed pop-under on every page.
Update: with scripting disabled, take advantage of the following to filter your searches instead.
- FileListing search operators: -word to exclude word; word1 | word2 | word3 to find any of those instead of all; size:AB-CD to set a size range where A and C are numbers, B and D are one of kb, mb, gb, tb (bytes are assumed otherwise) and AB can be omitted to represent zero or CD can be omitted to represent infinity; in:title to not search filenames

I wish these DHT indexers would work with JavaScript disabled, but other than that, they have my seal of approval.

FIND MY TORRENT (https://bitsearch.to/)
Thanks, that one seems nice and works without JavaScript.
Does BTDB still exist? I just remembered about them and none of their old domains seem functional.
rarbg, nayaa.is, subsplease, erai-raws
I recently rediscovered btdig.com, which I thought had shut down many years ago.
rarbg, nayaa.is, subsplease, erai-raws
Anyone who uses Nyaa should bookmark acg02.cc, as they'll keep torrents that have vanished from the main site. For instance, a certain manga about a school where it's always summer vacation...

This one is... interesting. There is no visible search feature. You can use /tag?q=word1+word2+word3 to search titles, with the caveat that will find all torrents containing any of those words, often resulting in a lot of noise. Encoding spaces as %20 instead of + and/or enclosing terms in quotation marks made no difference; using a regular search engine with the site:freshmeat.io operator is still possible. Search was either broken when I wrote this, or added very recently. Unfortunately it works the same way as the workaround I described.
It also tracks active peers on torrents and vice versa, but only found very few of the public ones I'm seeding.
Seems to me the focus of the site is finding recommendations or cool stuff at random, rather than building a "real" index. It's still fairly usable as one, though :idunno:
Did a cleanup and made the thread sticky.
There's also a convenient torrent search engine called "TorLook". It's not as good as torrentz2 but it definitely has better UI and filters

It's not as good as torrentz2
Oh, is Torrentz2 back again? I forgot about it after their .eu domain and associated onion site ceased to function.

i just need to learn how to block the ads in the right way. can i specify some pages only get adsblock in chrome?
Check the documentation for your ad blocker of choice =]

Self-hosted DHT search engine. Didn't want to post it since I haven't actually tried it and it's no longer maintained, but for the sake of completeness... note that even though BEP-51 theoretically allows it, don't expect a single instance to index millions of torrents like the search engines I've posted before, those run nodes all around the world and have been operating for years.
[freshmeat.io] also tracks active peers on torrents and vice versa, but only found very few of the public ones I'm seeding.
Upon closer examination, they don't seem to delete their download history. Some of the stuff I was seeding on early 2021 is still listed under my IPs of the time. Spooky :ninja:
To convert an IP address a.b.c.d to its decimal representation, do a*16777216 + b*65536 + c*256 + d.

very similar to this new hot piece that can be added to prowlarr:
https://github.com/bitmagnet-io/bitmagnet
BTW, these days I do searches for open torrents using every prowlarr public tracker available, all at once.
rarbg was best tracker for hd scene content.
now,
for windows applications piratebay
for hevc/x265 content 1337x
for 0day limetorrentc and torrentgalxy
BTW, the rarbg backup is recommended with bitmagnet.
I wonder when will someone just host it.

Kinozal, rutracker, rutor, metal tracker, tpb and nnclub (Russian)
I have been on these trackers for a long time and sometimes I found something that I could not find on private trackers.
for windows applications piratebay
...
for 0day limetorrentc and torrentgalxy
I don't know... I've been using torrents for 20 years, but with the exception of Windows ISOs from verified uploaders, I still feel like I'm playing Russian roulette when downloading warez from public trackers. Those things are very attractive targets due to the low investment required, huge audience and the fact you can reasonably expect antivirus warnings from (legitimate) cracks, letting your guard down.
Also, FreshMeat is gone on both Tor and clearnet.

for windows apps tpb is still best in public trackers.
for windows os, now in private tracker but open, teamos.xyz is popular.
but i always prefer untouch windows os.
otherwise, try Lubuntu.
i installed that few months ago, found it interesting.
but i am windows addict, most reason is i have multi vpns, and i mostly use windows built ikev2.
if i had extra laptop, i might use Lubuntu permanently.
i am still using win 7, i hate 8, 8.1, 10 and even 11.
in future i might migrate to Linux.
i mostly use rarbg for years, i was nearly in all trackers except ptp, hdbits, chdbits.
rarbg was best in 0day. interface was very good.
otherwise, try Lubuntu.

I have tried Lubuntu and many other distros throughout many years, which is why I use Windows as my main OS to this day. Linux is very good for servers, embedded devices and security auditing, but the 1970s design decisions show when you're trying to do "normal" usage. That's alright, though - you can take it or leave it.
FileListing has "shut down forever" (their words). The huge database of old torrents as well as the ability to search filenames and filter results will be missed.
2023 isn't being a very good year for torrenting...
For Mac Software I can recommend this one:
