Hello, everyone.

I used to have access to Iptorrents many years ago after being invited by a friend and loved it. As I felt Netflix was a reasonable replacement at the time, I shifted to purely using it for all my streaming needs resulting in an IPT account shutdown. Today is a different story though... As the library shrank and split into many different providers bumping the price up to a very UNreasonable level along with small and bloated libraries, I'm ditching the services for a purely Jellyfin reliant home. Does anyone know of a quality tracker that I can use these days?

Edit: Everyone has been so helpful. Thanks for all of the information and invites!

As said, if one does not understand a medium, it's not the medium's fault. Same as with torrent, if you need niche-stuff like localized dubs, you'd need local forums/sites for that. Same as with private torrent-trackers. I'm not a native-tongue either, but if i want localized or foreign stuff, there are at least 3 sites where i always find the stuff. It's just not a simple "enter name, wait, watch" anymore, just the same speed when actually downloading. I even have torrent as a low-priority fallback enabled. Didn't trigger for years :) Also torrent's full-speed vastly depends on age of torrents and how mainstream their content is. As if every torrent of the last decade on that tracker is shared with full-speed.

Anyhow, if you think torrent is superior, you're surely entitled to your own opinion of course. As said, the less people that use the usenet, the better for its future.
