Is torrentgalaxy blocking users with adblock? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So, I've tried to get into torrentgalaxy to get some stuff and on the top of the website there's this message:

|NEWSFLASH| Adblock is actively breaking site features again, disable when experiencing any issues.

Trying to find a torrent (Firefox, uBlock origin just updated) leads to results without names and figuring out how to get into the actual page of a given torrent leads to the page without the download torrent/get magnet link links.

I've tested with a browser without adblock and lo an behold, the issues are gone, but the site is obviously unusable.

Am I the only one experiencing this? There's no honor among pirates? Any other alternative?

I saw it a bit of time ago.. how safe it is? The access is not centralized, but the data it gets in it is, right? Or it is a service in the same webserver the one that does the scraping?

Will look into it when I got time... always is docker, jeez...
