I'll take a look at this. Is there any downsides to private trackers?

[–] JackAttack@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 month ago

Cool! I'll definitely check that out. Thanks!

Public I assume, I'm pretty new to torrenting and haven't really dove into private trackers yet. Any resources your recommend on reading up on that?

Well, from what I understood, in the privacy subreddit people were getting into it over Graphene OS and other privacy android OS's. During this, I guess the Devs (or dev) we're very petty or something and causing unnecessary in-fighting. Icould be telling this wrong but its something along those lines... To be clear, i think the actual rule is you cant specifically mention ANY 3rd party android OS, not just Graphene.

I disagree. I hate the decisions they make and personally, along with you, I think it's idiotic.

But while I hate on them, they will get away with it. Theyre not stupid. The decisions don't align with its users but it will still work.

Look at netflix raising prices for arguably worse content. Working for them.

Reddit; Charging for the API essentially killing almost all 3rd party apps. Not sure the effect but reddit doesn't seem to really be hurting. Users want to move but reddit is just too good. I even still use it because the user content on there is amazing. I try to ask all my questions/have discussions on lemmy, but I'm one person. Reddit has infinity more always contributing. I think the management sucks, but the platform just isn't fully rivaled yet so they can keep milking their audience.

Great. Thanks for clarifying!

I assume renames affect the "exact" part of it right?

[–] JackAttack@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Ah okay. That would make sense. I assume this does require the actual torrent file though or does this also work by using the magnet link and doing the same process?

Nice! One commenter did point point some important context though. I recommend reading the "EDIT" at the bottom of my post plus a comment from someone named @ashaman2007 or something like that. Just to make sure you get the full context of how this actually works! I wasn't fully aware when first posting.

Thanks for sharing! This also kind of clears up my confusion that I mentioned I'm the EDIT at the end of my post. I was wondering what the real benefit to this is but it seems like a password as the main with the pin and bio as the secondary seems to provide:

  • Main unlock: More. Secure with password?

  • Secondary unlock: "quicker" but also secure due to the pin with the bio.

Is this more or else the right idea?

Oh nice. Do you know if the lockdown option encrypts the phone?

From what I read, I believe on initial boot up, the phone is encrypted before first unlock but no longer after.
