Does anyone know how I can become an uploader for pirated content? is there any type of money to be had if I wanted to do it full time?

At the very least I’m curious, at the very most I’ve always wanted to give something back to the community that gave me so much free stuff.

But honestly, if I found someone reputable selling modded consoles, rather than picking someone random at etsy, I'd be their income for a year or so. After finishing my Roms and redumps collections, getting modded and working (to refurbished standards) hardware would be the next step. I love emulation but I much prefer original hardware if given the option.

But I suck at soldering and hardware modding/fixing in general. I don't even care if games are included, just give me the option to pop an HDD in on some quality modded console and I'll be happy.

I was referring to those as (mostly) ethical ways of profiting off of piracy.

Again, nobody stops you, but most people wouldn't see kindly to that. From leechers to other uploaders.

An example of this could be charging for songs on Soulseek.

That said I do wish console modding and the associated modding services were as popular as they were when the Xbox 360 was at it's peak. Unfortunately it seems like what happened with Gary Bowser modding Switchs scared a few people out of the market.
