Stop Crying, Wipe Your Tears - Introducing…. NQ-RARBG!
Hello members of /r/Piracy,
SlideMovies presents to you NQ-RARBG (Not Quite RARBG).
The death of RARBG has been truly saddening for all of us.
We have gathered developers and have started work on a RARBG clone.
The clone aims to have all the torrents from RARBG (except XXX), and then open registrations, so more people can add torrents. However, this will be under strict moderation to prevent the spread of malware.
GitHub: https://github.com/Not-Quite-RARBG/main
Link: https://nq-rarbg.to/
We encourage more and more developers to contribute and help us with our goal.
Thank you,
The SlideMovies Team

One thing I REALLY hope doesn’t make it into the clone… Rarbg made a point of claiming every single entry was seeded, despite the fact that pretty much anything more than a few months old was in fact not seeded and could only be obtained if another user came back. If you wanted to grab a TV show that had ended a couple years ago, you could bet that many episodes had a number of peers listed who were hoping it would be seeded again, but they never were. I guess I should clear out that stuff from my client now, but I actually have entries that have been waiting for up to two years because I couldn’t find them anywhere else.
So if any of the devs are reading this thread, please don’t insult your users in this way. Rarbg eventually became my last resort for finding downloads since I knew I couldn’t trust if anything was seeded, despite the high quality of the files that were represented when you could get them.
Honestly, 1337x is like 500 times worse about this. I’ve tried downloading torrents of that site claiming to have 50 seeders, but they were 100% dead torrents
One of my side projects is https://torrents-csv.ml , which is backed by a collaborative git repo of popular torrents. I do monthly scrapes, and found that A LOT of these torrents have no seeders anymore, even ones listed on 1337x and other popular ones.
I’ve been getting pretty decent results from torrent magnet for awhile now. Really they just seem to collect listings from other servers, but their status of each torrent has been pretty decent.
Good luck! I’m still typing “rar [Enter]” into my address bar every 15 mins like it still exists, seeing their goodbye message over and over. How many years have I been taking this site for granted? Damn
i use Sonarr and Radarr to automate my downloads, so I haven’t manually searched for a torrent from a single site in several years. maybe for a game or app, but I’m on mac, so I use other sites for that.
Nice I’ll have to try those out. Are they meant to be pronounced with like a pirate accent? Arrrr lol
well, they’re meant to be used with a plex (or jellyfin) server. you’ll also need prowlarr to get them working.

you know, in all of these years, I’ve never though about it, lmao-- but they probably are! hahaha
Private trackers are probably much better choice :)
Hard to get into one (and staying), especially in other countries / languages.
except XXX
I’m out.
found a coomer
such a weird exclusion. Why?? Must be americans.
To be fair, there are plenty of places to get porn for free online now. Who needs to download gigs of porn anymore??
Probably people with a NAS running stash app with libraries of over 20tb of full length 4k videos sorted by actors, studios, and tags. If I had to guess.
Jesus christ.
