Where to find torrents? (lemmy.world)

I used to use thepiratebay.org, but recently it seems the quality of the site has degraded.

I sometimes also use 1337xx.to , but that site seems to have a very small selection.

Note that I couldn't find an answer to this question in the wiki + meathread, so if the answer is already there, please direct my attention to it 🙏🏴‍☠️

1337x.to not xx.to

I have no idea who xx.to is... it's not on the list of alternate domains so I'm a bit leery of that one.

Although I'm not finding dutch there, bt4gprx.com has it but I'd be cautious with some of those.

    Just another douche trying to capitalize on misspellings or close enough URLs to shill their ads, or javascript mouse clicks, etc. There are tons of imposter sites for the bigger public trackers.

    Ya hopefully that's all it is and not something malicious...but I wouldn't trust anything off it.

    They just want ad clicks. It's a really basic scam. Duplicate the website. Flood it with javascript mouse clicks and you can get an ad impression for every 3/4 clicks. Multiply that by thousands you can make decent coin.

    That's all they are really after.
