โ›ต โžœ Not so fast sailor! Do this first

  • Use Firefox + uBlock Origin with these optimized settings (Blocks advertisements & malware).
  • Change your DNS settings to one of these great choices (Bypasses website access limitations).
  • Use a reputable torrent client with a kill switch, such as qBittorrent (Allows torrenting).
  • Set up a VPN such as Mullvad or ProtonVPN (Changes IP address to hide identity).
  • Bind your torrent client to the VPN (Only allows torrenting when VPN is active).

  • Any links that are not included in the entire Megathread have either not been approved by the moderators or the community, or have been deleted at some point. In other words, use extra caution anytime you sail in uncharted waters.
  • That said, as times change, so do the currents. What is seen as a safe route to great treasures now may soon be a shell of its former self or even be riddled with the black plague. Always exercise caution and if you notice problems with any of the sites in our Megathread, please contact the moderators.

Im so confused as to why this is titled "Lemmy Edition" but all the hyperlinks lead back to the privated reddit sub. Maybe I'm missing something. I'll just stick to the rentry link but I'd think it's better off to just remove this to avoid confusion.

[-] cristalcommons@lemmy.world 40 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

hello, comrades. thanks a lot for your effort. just to be sure, is this community maintained by the same staff from r/Piracy? i deleted my Reddit account months ago and i can't check it out myself... ^^U

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 81 points 1 year ago

I was the top mod in /r/piracy, so ye

[-] cristalcommons@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

aa, thank you for replying and confirming! :)

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 58 points 1 year ago

Myself I moved here only and don't plan to keep /r/piracy alive. However some other mods are dedicated to being unpaid jannitors for spez, so :shrug:

[-] cristalcommons@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

that's very sad, i'm sorry.

one may feel unsupported because others don't have enough courage to leave Reddit, leaving you alone with this, which perhaphs is more difficult than moderating r/Piracy without mods.

Might even feel outrageous if they joined later only in case Lemmy is a success thanks to the people here, but i don't know.

i find you people very brave and forward-looking, thank you all for your effort <3

[-] alexg_k@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago

Ivpn stopped as well. Let's hope this is not a trend..

[-] freedomenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

When reading the reasons of mullvad to stop, my guess is that others will follow

[-] alexg_k@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

Agreed. I think the only VPN providers that are able to keep offering port forwarding are those that log data and hand it to the authorities.

[-] andymouse@slrpnk.net 2 points 8 months ago

No, Njalla at njal.la offers port forwarding

[-] DarkTides@lemmy.fmhy.ml 13 points 1 year ago

I've relied on this mega thread for a long time.

Are there any tips to see check if VPN isn't leaking anything when torrenting? Mullvad used to let you check with a magnet link they provided before they got rid of it.

[-] ober@lemmy.dbzer0.com 25 points 1 year ago

Personally I use the torrent ip check on ipleak.net. You just add the magnet to your client and it'll fail itself and then list the ip on the site.

[-] DarkTides@lemmy.fmhy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for.

[-] ober@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

Glad I could help :)

[-] Cheems@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

With mullvad not allowing portforwarding, should we be recommending it?

[-] Lord_Boffum@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Came here to post this. If seeding is important to you, and I hope it kinda is, then you need port forwarding. So Mullvad is out, or at least I switched away from it.

[-] imgonnatrythis@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Switched to what? Mullvad was a trustworthy reliable staple.

[-] andymouse@slrpnk.net 2 points 8 months ago

I go with Njalla for torrents until I hear anything weird about them

[-] Cheems@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago
[-] Lord_Boffum@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I wonder if they couldn't have just switched to NAT-PMP port forwarding like Proton does.

[-] Lime66@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

About port forwarding, is it nessecary to download or just to upload?

[-] Cheems@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I am no expert, but I think it does deal with both? Definitely upload, but I think that if your ports aren't forwarded correctly then you won't get as many download connections?

[-] FromAbyss@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Thank you for keeping the internet alive and well, comrades.

[-] baduhai@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 year ago

Be sure to save our Megathread for future reference without relying on Reddit.

Bit of a mute point now, isn't it? :)

can you add some "otherlanguages" section? or some trusted websites for keygens, also for the italian piracy site, theres a list with some of the italian most famous websites, both torrent and emule.

Could you ammend the reddit links to point to old.reddit? The new design is just bad to look at.

[-] hungry_freaks_daddy@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Canโ€™t figure out how to โ€˜saveโ€™ a post in the wefwef app. Anyone?

[-] 1st@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

If you work it out lemme know, the โ€œbookmarkโ€, it does nothing!โ€

update: ripped.guide has returned to normalcy...

their domain seems to have been hijacked by a disgruntled former staff member who deliberately ruined the site. maybe you could add the site back? it was quite a useful resource.

[-] sunbrothersco@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

It's still there at https://rentry.co/megathread. A new pinned post will be made at a later date so everything makes sense.

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago
[-] NoTime@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The links under section 1 link to Reddit, may be an idea to host those elsewhere?

EDIT: I missed the link at the bottom, looks like it's all on rentry.co

Thank god for Lemmy

I guess

[-] UnPassive@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this community on social.fossware.space before? Anyone know what happened?

I'm particularly interested because my main Lemmy account was on the fossware instance which seems to have disappeared overnight. Not sure if it's just temporarily down, or was moved here. I definitely can't log in to lemmy.dbzer0.com as my old account.

Not sure where best to post this question because the dbzer0 instance doesn't seem to have a meta community

Edit: looks like c/div0 might be the meta community

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

No this community has always been here. There is another in !piracy@lemmy.ml but it's a different community

[-] UnPassive@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks! I'll keep a lookout on news of what happened to fossware (probably just down for server issues)

[-] clot27@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Why most of the links redirect to reddit? I dont want to open that website.

[-] SomeBoyo@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Can XDCC / IRC be added to the megathread?

[-] HectorBarbossa99@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Will the megathread here continue to be updated, even if we go back to reddit? So that its the exact same as reddit where when sites are shown to have viruses they will be removed?

Also, do we know if the pirated games sub Reddit is going to make their own instance? or do we need to just look at FMHY and Piracy for it?

[-] sunbrothersco@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Our Megathread on Reddit (currently private for regular users), and the one on Rentry will both be updated for the foreseeable future ๐Ÿ˜‰

[-] Yokozuna@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Hey all, so about 10ish years ago I used to torrent a few things, nothing heavy like games or programs but just TV shows and what not. I got burned pretty bad, had my computer compromised and files encrypted. I was able to salvage most of my rig but a lot of pictures and files were lost to the ether. I want to get back into this but understandably I'm pretty concerned about it. Any tips on getting safely back into sailing the seas?
