Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

As of today the only one similar to RARBG is

TorrentGalaxy.to

After that I'd go with...

MagnetDL.com

TorrentDownload.info

Torlock.com

1337x.to/home

Torrentz2.nz

SolidTorrents.to

ThePirateBay.org

Ext.to

ExtraTorrents.it

EZTV.re

LimeTorrents.cc

TorrentLeech.org

web.stremio.com (for viewing and direct downloads)

YTS.mx (.mp4 only)

Personally, I use a combination of MagnetDL.com and TorrentGalaxy.to… That gets me back to my search routine for everything I usually found on RARBG… TorrentDownload.info and Torlock.com are solid options as well…

Hopefully when all the smoke clears, RARBG will be able to start up again...

Happy Torrenting!...

1337x is another popular, widely used public tracker. You should check the mega thread if your looking for other options.

Tbh I see everyone bothering with private trackers and I can't stand that this is what it has come to. Torrenting is meant to be open to everyone, and it is a 0-sum game. It is physically impossible for everyone to have above 1 ratio. Policing ratio just means your users who are not able to own a seedbox get kicked out in the name of "they're just leeches" while your users who do enjoy 10-20 ratio for content they don't even intend to watch.

I should specify I'm not mad cuz bad, my overall ratio stands at 2.89 (3 max per torrent). I always seed my torrents because my router is a torrent client, I'm just mad that this is what is necessary to stand a chance in private trackers, which are an abomination to begin with.

I guess this isn't for everyone, but I find my torrents on the DHT. I have a magnetico instance running at night (because believe it or not, NAT tables don't like you opening 2000 sessions per second to a different IP each time), and it crawls the DHT for random torrents. These are guaranteed at least 1 seeder, and since I found them on the DHT I am much more likely to find other seeders on the DHT as well.

Honestly, it's been serving me quite well. I can't share access publicly because take a wild guess at what you find randomly on the DHT, but if there was a realistic way of moderating out that, I would. In the meantime, I highly recommend you get a raspberry pi and install magnetico yourself.

It's tough to replace rarbg because they posted a lot of "custom" content. They didnt source anything, but they had a lot of auto-upload bots that would rehost content gathered from private torrent trackers.

You can always use sites like torrent galaxy or other torrent aggregators like bitsearch, but without rarbg's efforts to continually reupload the aforementioned "privileged" content, their loss is definitely big

Seeding requirements are tough and I know private is not the way for everyone.

But seeding does help the community and can be done with minimal effort if you are crafty about it and have the space with a computer you leave on 24/7, or even easier, a seedbox. Just freelech a few hundred gigabytes of the most popular stuff, let it seed for a few weeks, and when you come back, you'll have tons of upload credit to download stuff.

Rinse and repeat each month. Unlimited free stuff glitch, lol. Except it's not a glitch, just not too hard to do, even encouraged. After doing this a few times you will have tons of free credit with very little effort on your part.

Once you have the credit, delete the popular torrents to free up space (if you don't want them) and grab new freeleaches for more credit.

Private trackers have always been better than RARBG. Even something easy to get into like TorrentLeech is probably better!

I finally set up radarr and sonarr (and prowlarr.) Radarr's list feature pulls in new titles to check out. With a bunch of shitty public indexers it manages to find what is being looked for without making me wade through the muck.

https://vuniper.com/ shows new blurays which is nice.

Depends what it is you miss about RARBG.. if it's the x265 encodes, then look up Infinity on torrentgalaxy

I've been using snowfl.com for a while, it searches several different sites

therarbg.com

its getting there

I like 1337x.

But I'm mostly using TorrentLeech. I have a seedbox with 20TB of bandwidth per month so I have no problem hitting ratio. My *Arr instances use TL first and only use 1337x if it can't find what it is looking for.

If you don't want your torrent leech account I'll take it.

TorrentLeech's seeding requirements are certainly difficult, but they're still easier than IPTorrents! Try to find FreeLeech stuff to help build your ratio. Ideally you obviously want to find stuff that is in high demand so that others will download from you, but even if you don't, you'll accrue TL points which can be spent on improving your upload ratio once you get enough of them.

Where can I find a TorrentLeech invite? I don’t have problems with seeding requirements.

TL's seeding requirements really aren't that bad. A lot of people don't realize you don't have to do that seeding 24/7 if you don't rent a seedbox or a have dedicated machine. If you want you can close your client while you use your computer and keep it running when, say, you're at work or asleep. Similarly if you want to turn your computer off overnight or something that's fine too. You'll just get a HnR warning that will clear once you open your client again.

Once you start to rank up your required seed time lowers. It bottoms out at just 4 days if you get to the TL-God user rank.

I went to usenet finally and still use torrentgalaxy, 1337, and kraben to search for stuff

rutracker is best public tracker imo. qxr on 1337x is also nice. ipt and tl are decent private general trackers if your having issues with the seeding requirements you could always use ratiomaster software

There really isn't any alternative to what RARBG offered in terms of search (being able to filter directly on 4K/UHD releases), and the content available (4K DV Web-DLs in MP4 container). And the curation, none of these renamed torrents or homebrewed "upscales". Sad to see it go, and that there's nothing even coming close to what it offered.
