I really want to thank you for this post, it opens up some long hidden secrets and gems inside the piracy world <3
I want to add something to this thread for my advanced pirates: irc xdcc chats for directly downloading content use http://sunxdcc.com to search for the content you are lookin for! (though, it's very manual)
Not that advanced, but two things I found useful:
Also what's the safest/cheapest/possible free(?) VPN you can use to torrent? Thinking about doing that as Direct Download, while nice and more safe, can definitely be time consuming
Mullvad is great
Rise Up VPN seems to work pretty well and is based on OpenVPN. It crashes less than my qbittorrent client so I've had minimal issues with it.
Using file hosters instead of Usenet, that's a Paddlin'. Using JD2 instead of PyLoad, that's a Paddlin'. Using a headless version of JD2, that's a Paddlin'. Using an overpriced RPI, that's a Paddlin'.
What makes PyLoad better than JD2? Filthy JD2 user here.
Jd2 is awesome, I use it all the time
if you can
Everyone can.
I got in via an interview for what.cd, way back in the day. The interview process is still a viable way in for those willing to put a bit of time in.
