"Fellow pirates" that's the most suspicious ass thing you could possibly say here

[–] RandallFlagg@lemm.ee 56 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How do you do, fellow pirates?

[–] Garry@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wonderful weather we’re having, fellow pirates

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 9 points 2 years ago

Arrr matey, hav' a swig o' grog!

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.

[–] PolarisFx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Does Prowlarr work in a similar way?

[–] Madbrad200@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Yes, it but doesn't integrate into qBittorrent like Jackett does. Jackett is more for manual searching, prowlarr integrates better with other *arr services.

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.

[–] Garry@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Have you tried stremio + real debrid, I’ve been using that and wanted to see if there’s any benefits to switching to kodi.

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.

[–] zaknenou@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 years ago

I mainly use yandex to search for image sources, it works better than sauce.nao for anime!

[–] Aram1s@lemm.ee 10 points 2 years ago

PDF isn't an ebook format which is why EPUB is usually preferred.

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?

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!

[–] pelikan@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Another good sources for metal are metalarea.org and metal-tracker.com

private trackers in general

[–] wolfnexus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The thing with private trackers is that theren't that many more people who can use it

What are the benefits of private trackers for someone who only pirates widely popular media and games?

[–] gjghkk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 years ago (5 children)

nothing. Private trackers are overrated. Unless you want some obscure things.

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

I still use Vuze. I never see ANYONE mention it. But I've used it for near 15 years.

[–] vicfic@iusearchlinux.fyi 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is there like any advantage of vuze over something more mainstream like qbitorrent?

[–] OverfedRaccoon@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I was on µTorrent for a long time on a really old build (like 2.2.1) because it got even more bloated and crappy with every new release, especially over 3.0. I realized, aside from missing new features and stuff, it was probably a security risk being that far behind. I made the switch to qBittorrent and never looked back. It basically took everything I liked about that old style build of µTorrent and brought it into modern times.

For playing videos: An AppleTV4K with the Infuse app. Just point it to your network share and it builds a library and plays back pretty much anything. It’s also incredibly user friendly for roommates or family to use.
