    I didn’t realise RARBG had shut down. Such a shame, that was a great site for torrents.

    glad someone else is feeling this. it’s really strange and depressing seeing so many good things collapse within the year. and we’re getting no wins whatsoever

      Honestly I’m somewhere between “average person” and “ultra nerd” so the fact that I am finally too fed up with reddit and leaving for mastodon and lemmy makes me think more people will do likewise. I call that a win.

        The “enshitification” of the web recently feels almost coordinated. Factually; it is not coordinated; it’s just bad luck.

        Still stinks though. Society still has not learned that allowing capitalism to run rampantly unchecked is generally causing these issues.

          Do you know a not sus VPN that supports p2p torrenting? I 🏴‍☠️ tens of games a month and recently our fascist government just passed a draconian anti piracy law, what VPN should I look to?

                  Can you explain a bit more, if you don’t mind? From what I’ve read not being able to port forward can decrease the number of connections you can make while torrenting (i.e. slower down-/upload), but I don’t see why this would cause IP leaks assuming your torrent client is configured to only use VPN connections. I’ve never used it personally. Not trying to be obtuse or anything, I’m just a bit confused and very sceptical in terms of alternatives because I’m not very serious in terms of torrenting and would be hesitant to change my trust.
