Hello! To start my attempt at not lurking I am posting a link to the collection of links I have from Reddit regarding various Piracy sites. Please keep in mind this is my personal collection. You should ABSOLUTELY vet the links yourself. I am just a guy on the internet, I am not a trusted source. This is not a complete list. This is just the sites I refer to for their specific category. I’ve omitted a fair bit too since the megathreads / link collections have them already too.

If you have other good sources, be sure to share!

    PDFdrive is an okay website, but it’s very weak in regards to finding books, especially because it specializes in PDFs, which are very bad for reading. They’re meant for documents, not books. But in general, the books you find there are messy and inconsistent. You’re much better off going with a place like libgen.gs.

    Thank you for resources?

    Noob question: How would I go about vetting the links/downloads?

    Also, how do I safely download from these sites? I’ve been using a VPN (mullvad) for a couple years now, but is that enough?

    I’m pretty tech savvy but I have never needed to download, but I just don’t want to install origin, Uplay, EA, or any other launcher to play a single player game and tbh I don’t want to support those companies at all

      Also, how do I safely download from these sites?

      I thought there was a mirror on lemmy for r/piracy’s spectacular megathread but I don’t see it. Rough guides from a semi-noob:

      Direct download:

      1. TOR with Ublock Origin add-on

      2. After downloading your file, upload it to virustotal.com and scan it. If it passes you’re probably pretty safe.

      Torrent:

      1. Find and copy your file magnet in TOR.

      2. Turn on VPN.

      3. Open qbittorrent with your connection bound to your VPN’s network.

      4. Paste your magnet link when it prompts you and download.

      5. Once it’s done downloading, upload it to virustotal to scan it.

        Why could you not just find the magnet link with VPN on? Just trying to understand why that should be done via TOR

    My first Lemmy post! Has anyone found any good trash TV sources? I’ve had to resort to streaming sites like soap and the like. Can’t stand the stuff myself, but gotta keep the missus happy so I can keep home labbing :D

    Torrents 🤢🤢🤢… I’m surprised people still use them without going through I2P.

    I’ve heard bflix has the movie+tv show goodies.
