  • Does a vpn really matter when torenting? Do people care?

    Jump

  • Save your lunch money for however long it takes to be able to buy a year of VPN like Mullvad in your country.

    You aren't paying for your internet so you'd be an asshole to put the account holder under scrutiny for torrenting without protection. Especially when they are also covering your rent, elecricity, gas, food, clothing, etc. Don't be a selfish asshole.

    If you can't get VPN don't be entitled and go off torrenting because other people say it is fine. You aren't paying for internet so you don't get the privilege to decide if it is fine or not.

  • Mullvad or Proton VPN?

    Jump

  • I like that you don't have to provide an email address to mullvad.

  • RealDebrid happily sharing customer's information that's still retained on their servers 😅

    Jump

  • When I looked into real debrid years ago I noped out of it real quick after seeing the payment methods and info demanded that made it difficult to try to make the process as anonymous as possible.

  • TachiyomiSY devs have announced to work on a new "spiritual successor" of Tachiyomi

    Jump

  • I did a bunch of downloading of stuff I plan to read before the extensions stop working. Should give me time to wait to see what develops until then.

  • I use it mainly for manhwa too, since it's really easy to find higher quality manga downloads compared to manhwa with it being webtoon based.

  • PSA: There are paid services that use residential/clean (not identified as VPN) IP address VPNs/proxies that allow you to watch Hulu etc in other countries.

    Jump

  • Yeah, cost of an extra $120 a year to try and get more media out of a legit and already expensive monthly subscription is the point where I'd just scrap it all for a cheaper VPN for pirating. Point of paying for Netflix or Hulu for me would be to not have to do that stuff.

  • Also, complaining about not having time but wasting their time talking to strangers online. I could understand the perspective from someone who doesn't pirate, but to a pirate it is pretty hilarious seeing them making it out as this incredibly difficult time consuming thing like infomercials do.

    Jump

  • What are you pirating that makes it so hard? I don't bother with software or programs so it's just pretty much looking at what's newly released and torrenting it.

    Why even pirate if it's that much of a pain? Pretty much same logic to me a someone who complains about how confusing pc gaming is. I'd point to the consoles.

  • Once a pirate, always a pirate

    Jump

  • Really? I could understand that point from someone not in the piracy community, but doesn't seem any more time consuming than posting on lemmy. Not really starved for time if someone is spending their time on social media.

    Mind you I don't pirate software or games, so maybe that's why. Pretty much hardest has been waiting for download to finish.

  • The hunt is part of the fun. Like how people will opt to build a PC or a keyboard over a pre-built or pull out vinyl over digital. The steps taken to retrieve and enjoy the media is sometimes a relaxing process.

  • I had no idea that you could download movies from the 90ies from archive.org

    Jump

  • I am pouring one out to this little champ. Stripping HDCP and letting me... archive streaming services from 2016-2023 RIP

    Jump

  • Biggest evidence of that is Epic will give away games for free, but there will be people who prefer to pay for the Steam version over the free version.

    That's the biggest evidence that piracy is a problem of distribution and goes against the idea that those who pirates are against paying for a product.

  • Do you utilize a dedicated AV like Bitdefender when sailing? Or do you still trust Windows Defender to take care of the higher risk while doing this?

    Jump

  • I pirate on Linux and don't use that device for anything else. And I don't pirate software or games where you are installing stuff.

  • A different type of 17th century piracy

    Jump

  • Piracy is timeless.

  • What's your favorite torrent search engine?

    Jump

  • I love qbittorent. I love that it's in the Linux repo too.

  • Decentralization has always been the way for piracy, since many places inevitably go down throughout the years but it being spread out is what keeps everything from being taken down by a single closure. So while not convenient it makes it more resilient.

  • How could I start a torrent site and not get caught?

    Jump

  • Start revolution and overthrow dictator and put myself in as dictator. Build up military and gather nukes under guise of protecting country, but it's really to protect me from copyright trolls.

  • Ohh yeah, EMPRESS drama is BACK!

  • You forgot the most important part. They are pro DRM.... Wtf

  • Dear Steam deck pirates, what's your current setup?

  • Only roms and syncthing to sync saves. I love syncthing.
