"Fellow pirates" that's the most suspicious ass thing you could possibly say here
How do you do, fellow pirates?
Wonderful weather we’re having, fellow pirates
Arrr matey, hav' a swig o' grog!
Nice try totally not in the FBI Garry!!!
Shhhhh, it’s called the fediverse for a reason
Copying an older comment of mine,
Download qBittorrent. Download Jackett. Configure Jackett to work inside qBittorrent. You now have a way to search hundreds of trackers all at once within seconds and find literally anything you want.
Does Prowlarr work in a similar way?
Yes, it but doesn't integrate into qBittorrent like Jackett does. Jackett is more for manual searching, prowlarr integrates better with other *arr services.

And Sci-Hub while were at it
For Manga/Comics/Webtoons/Etc.:
Tachidesk on desktop
Tachiyomi on mobile.
These are both fantastic and allow you to grab manga, comics, etc. from pretty much every site you can think of to have it all in one place.
For Movies/TV/Anime:
Kodi + Debrid + Arctic Horizon 2/TMDbHelper + Fen + Otaku (resources: 1, 2; screenshots: album)
I love this. I can watch literally anything I want as if it was a netflix-like service, and don't have to use a VPN. Can even throw this on a shield/chromecast/firestick.
edit: tachidesk doesn't have a fit-to-page feature, but you can just use stylus with this:
img{
height:100vh !important; /* fit height of screen */
min-width:0 !important; /* also needed for fit height */
}
edit 2: Also, not really piracy per se, but Syncplay is great for watching downloaded content with friends.
PC game osts:KhinsiderDownloader
Switch dumping: nxdumptool + tinfoil
Wii U ripping: Wii U USB helper or dumpling
PS3 backups: nopaystatoon
Pre-patched rom hacks: CDRomance
Other backups or manuals and scans: Internet archive or vimm's lair
My main suggestion is to make your pirate searches using Yandex. Most book names "pdf" will give a result. You can also filter to only show sites of a specific language.
PDF isn't an ebook format which is why EPUB is usually preferred.
I mainly use yandex to search for image sources, it works better than sauce.nao for anime!
You know I just thought about sharing my entire piracy bookmark folder (while excluding some subfolders and/or sites) on Brave Android, is there any way to do so?
Most browsers have a setting that lets you export your favorites as an HTML file.
XDCC
What is that?
If you have ever heard of IRC it uses that network to directly send files to you. Basically you need an IRC client then you message a bot for the file(s) you want it to send to you. There are xdcc search engines like sunxdcc and you can usually find books, audio, anime, etc.
Im sorry for asking this but what is IRC?
Its an old school chat protocol. You can try it for yourself kiwiirc is a website that lets you chat with IRC. You need to pick a network, Rizon is a good network to start with. There are a bunch of different commands you can use but the only ones i found useful are /msg to send a message and /join to join a channel.
For the downloading part you need a client that supports XDCC, and then you can use these commands with your bot of choice
For any metal/rock music, I use getmetal.club
For comics I use getcomics.org
EDIT: took away the www, and actually spelt "get" right which should fix the links. Sorry everyone!
Another good sources for metal are metalarea.org and metal-tracker.com
private trackers in general
The thing with private trackers is that theren't that many more people who can use it
This list comes in useful for people who are not tech savvy to stream shit. Just make sure they have some form of adblock for sure. https://fmhy.pages.dev/videopiracyguide/#dedicated-hosts
Twitter client - squawker Lemmy - Jebora YT - Newpipe Spotify - blackhole VPN - Bitmask & Orbot
LocalSend or KDEConnect to send files between devices.
I still use Vuze. I never see ANYONE mention it. But I've used it for near 15 years.
Is there like any advantage of vuze over something more mainstream like qbitorrent?
