TPB is not what used to be anyways
TPB is exactly what it used to be, it hasn't been updated in nearly 2 decades.
As the site maintainers used to and still do say, if you don't like it, make your own.
People can and have made sites that are better than TPB. Functionally, TPB's site is still usable (and also quite a nostalgia trip with its appearance), but in terms of the content, there are a ton of malware-laced torrents on there. I understand that you always have to be careful when torrenting regardless of where you get something from, but it's kind of a bad sign when you're looking for something, and most of the torrents you find are malicious.
