        Yes, it but doesn’t integrate into qBittorrent like Jackett does. Jackett is more for manual searching, prowlarr integrates better with other *arr services.

          For me, prowlarr works much better together with qBittorrent, sonarr and radarr. + Add Flood to the list for easier mobile friendly UI for qBittorrent.

              I didnt know about qBittorrent Remote App. I have to try it when I got home. Flood is missing some functionalities and it looks like it’s not maintained anymore. Also, I need to check this Nzb360 app. Thanks for suggestions.

    For Manga/Comics/Webtoons/Etc.:
    Tachidesk on desktop
    Tachiyomi on mobile.
    These are both fantastic and allow you to grab manga, comics, etc. from pretty much every site you can think of to have it all in one place.

    For Movies/TV/Anime:
    Kodi + Debrid + Arctic Horizon 2/TMDbHelper + Fen + Otaku (resources: 1, 2; screenshots: album)
    I love this. I can watch literally anything I want as if it was a netflix-like service, and don’t have to use a VPN. Can even throw this on a shield/chromecast/firestick.

    edit: tachidesk doesn’t have a fit-to-page feature, but you can just use stylus with this:
    img{
    height:100vh !important; /* fit height of screen */
    min-width:0 !important; /* also needed for fit height */
    }
    edit 2: Also, not really piracy per se, but Syncplay is great for watching downloaded content with friends.

      Have you tried stremio + real debrid, I’ve been using that and wanted to see if there’s any benefits to switching to kodi.

        I haven’t ever tried it so unfortunately I can’t directly compare. I’ve been using kodi + debrid for years though with zero issues, and since it served my needs perfectly I haven’t tried anything new since. I even set it up on a chromecast for my tech illiterate dad, and he’s been cable/stream service free since.

        Kodi is more customizable and you can make its interface similar to streaming apps, otherwise the result is the same

      Banged my head against Tachidesk for a bit tonight, I do not see how to import sources, even a local one, I guess there is more hidden config stuff to do.

      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.

        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!)

          Except it’s often not your ISP going after you, and https does not protect against everything. A few years ago there was a scandal in Germany when a moneygrubbing law firm took out ads on a porn site to get user IPs and the referer header, then sent demands to users for illegally downloading copyrighted material.

          A court initially rubber-stamped the requests for IP info from the law firm.

          A better judge/court clarified the law (streaming is fine in Germany) in that case and there were hopefully consequences for the law firm and the lawyers involved, but some suckers paid hush money first.

        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.

          Right, the concern is that is true until it isn’t safe. Someone is going to be the first to be charged.

    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.

    You know I just thought about sharing my entire piracy bookmark folder (while excluding some subfolders and/or sites) on Brave Android, is there any way to do so?

        Sorry for the late reply I got busy with other things, anyway here is my piracy folder just import the file using your browser

        Also, it’s unfortunately not the case with the mobile version and the desktop version doesn’t allow for exporting select bookmarks, I used Edge to drag and drop the folder into it then edited it then hit export

        Alternatively, there are browser extensions that can do that

        If you have ever heard of IRC it uses that network to directly send files to you. Basically you need an IRC client then you message a bot for the file(s) you want it to send to you. There are xdcc search engines like sunxdcc and you can usually find books, audio, anime, etc.

            Its an old school chat protocol. You can try it for yourself kiwiirc is a website that lets you chat with IRC. You need to pick a network, Rizon is a good network to start with. There are a bunch of different commands you can use but the only ones i found useful are /msg to send a message and /join to join a channel.

            For the downloading part you need a client that supports XDCC, and then you can use these commands with your bot of choice

        IRC is a simple text chat protocol.

        DCC is an extension for file transfer.

        XDCC is a text command definition/protocol for interacting with irc chat bots offering files through DCC.

      Oooh so it’s my first time hearing and after looking it up, WHY AREN’T PEOPLE USING IT? Like why pay for a VPN, when you have stuff like this? What are the limiting factors for XDCC?

        Its not as common as torrenting, so less stuff is uploaded to it. Also download speeds are dependent on the bot, so some dls can be pretty slow

        The limiting factor is accessibility/usability.

        Having to set up an irc client, with xdcc, and then learning about xdcc commands.
