MaM is the absolute best for audiobooks IMO. Always have what I want, a friendly and helpful community and from what I hear the most forgiving private tracker around.

ABT isn't bad either. You get a good spread with both.

I use myanonamouse. Had to back then, none of the public trackers were good. Sounds like they might be better now though. MaM is the only private tracker I'm on.

Do i have to log in to download from audiobookbay?

[–] Arkhive@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 8 months ago

bugmenot usually has a few working audiobookbay logins if you don’t want to deal with setting up an account

You can grab the hash and bang it into a magnet link converter like this one: http://www.romanr.info/magnet.html

Heads up about myanonamouse - they forbid VPNs during the initial interview, although apparently they allow VPNs after that.

Something funny about all kinds of private trackers that demand you not use a VPN and reveal all sort of stuff about you. Just feels so backwards lol

Right? I see lots of people recommending MaM for audiobooks, but not allowing VPN during the initial registration process is a hard no for me. Oh well.

Apparently their tech stack is way too old. So they have some weird restrictions.

very "you have to tell me if you're a cop, right?" vibes

Ditto. ABB and then use Audiobookshelf.

ABB is what I mostly use, going to have to give MAM a go again (didnt really do much audio books for a long while)
