https://ripped.guide/ can be pretty handy.
- Thank you!
- Oh wow! A quick look on it and I saw its a massive data source.. Thank you!
- Amazing
"Fellow pirates" that's the most suspicious ass thing you could possibly say here
- How do you do, fellow pirates?
  
  Wonderful weather we’re having, fellow pirates
Copying an older comment of mine,

Download qBittorrent. Download Jackett. Configure Jackett to work inside qBittorrent. You now have a way to search hundreds of trackers all at once within seconds and find literally anything you want.
- Does Prowlarr work in a similar way?
  
  Yes, it but doesn't integrate into qBittorrent like Jackett does. Jackett is more for manual searching, prowlarr integrates better with other *arr services.
Library Genesis
- Anna’s archive
- And Sci-Hub while were at it
PC game osts:KhinsiderDownloader

Switch dumping: nxdumptool + tinfoil

Wii U ripping: Wii U USB helper or dumpling

PS3 backups: nopaystatoon

Pre-patched rom hacks: CDRomance

Other backups or manuals and scans: Internet archive or vimm's lair
- Oh wow, I forgot about khinsider!
- I love CDRomance. Definitely recommend it not just for pre-patched ROM hacks, but also just their normal ROMS as well since I have never had any problems with the site besides the time I accidentally went to a most likely virus infested clone site.
https://movie-web.app/ Its pretty good.
- This feels like something that should be used with a VPN. Be careful.
  
  Well, since it is just a an organised frontend for a multiple HLS streaming sources, I wouldn't worry about my IP leaking (it's not P2P).
  
  Your ISP can only see the domains which you are connecting to, not the content that is transferred (cuz https).
  
  If you are still paranoid, just route it through tor! It's just a website after all. (ik it's slow but it works!)
  
  That is nonsense.
  
  At least in the US, no one has ever been charged for using (implicitly non-p2p) streaming sites. People are charged for distribution - that is, the upload portion of p2p. Just viewing stuff in your browser is perfectly safe without a VPN.
- I can't believe they got arabic subs
- A quick click and browse around has proven this may be one of my new favorite resources... And a webapp... I'm in love
My main suggestion is to make your pirate searches using Yandex. Most book names "pdf" will give a result. You can also filter to only show sites of a specific language.
- PDF isn't an ebook format which is why EPUB is usually preferred.
- I mainly use yandex to search for image sources, it works better than sauce.nao for anime!

private trackers in general
- The thing with private trackers is that theren't that many more people who can use it
  
  Not following what you mean by this comment?
- What are the benefits of private trackers for someone who only pirates widely popular media and games?
  
  nothing. Private trackers are overrated. Unless you want some obscure things.
  
  There once was a couple of Danish sites where all content had Danish subtitles. That was really nice, and something you don't find on the average P2P-site.

StaxRip (Windows only)

A terminal emulator

Jellyfin (think FOSS plex alternative)
For any metal/rock music, I use getmetal.club

For comics I use getcomics.org

EDIT: took away the www, and actually spelt "get" right which should fix the links. Sorry everyone!
- Another good sources for metal are metalarea.org and metal-tracker.com
  
  And Soulseek.
- For comics I use www.getcomics.org
  
  Huh, I'm getting a ngnix website 😅
  
  Ditch the www prefix
- Fixed the links everyone! Sorry!
- they don't work
This list comes in useful for people who are not tech savvy to stream shit. Just make sure they have some form of adblock for sure. https://fmhy.pages.dev/videopiracyguide/#dedicated-hosts
AnyVideoConverter and VLC video player
- VLC is underrated?
  
  Yeah, tbh most people do not use it to its full capabilities!
- Mpv
For playing videos: An AppleTV4K with the Infuse app. Just point it to your network share and it builds a library and plays back pretty much anything. It’s also incredibly user friendly for roommates or family to use.
- android lacks many polished apps like this
- Apple strikes gold sometimes. I fucking love my Apple TV 4K, and the last apple product I liked was the iPod nano. I'm no fanboy. It's just such a nice slick device. I only wish it had a USB port, then it would be perfect.
LocalSend or KDEConnect to send files between devices.
I still use Vuze. I never see ANYONE mention it. But I've used it for near 15 years.
- Is there like any advantage of vuze over something more mainstream like qbitorrent?
  
  I was on µTorrent for a long time on a really old build (like 2.2.1) because it got even more bloated and crappy with every new release, especially over 3.0. I realized, aside from missing new features and stuff, it was probably a security risk being that far behind. I made the switch to qBittorrent and never looked back. It basically took everything I liked about that old style build of µTorrent and brought it into modern times.
  
  No idea. It's just what I've always used. It does what I need it to, so. Woo
- What’s Vuze?
  
  I think originally it was called Azureus.
  
  A torrent client.
- It is closed source though. Qbittorrent is a very strong rival in torrent downloaders. It is well maintained, with free license, and omniplatform
- Thats hilarious. Is it still super bloated?
  
  Idk, never really noticed anything. It dies what I need it to and that's it.
Dang, what an informative thread for everyone!
tehparadox was relaunched under a different name in 2016 by an uploader in vietnam and the current one is a fraud. ive seen it on FMHY but its also easily found on google
