I'm no expert at this, but:
There are still other open trackers, (KAT, Demonii, etc) though I don't know how much I trust them.
Otherwise, it depends what you are looking for. Private trackers are probably you best bet for files on a particular topic.
If you want anime, Nyaa.se seems decent.
If you enjoy hoarding random crap, vist >>>/t/ occasionally and filter "jav", "*javjunkies*" and "*sukebei.nyaa*".

Hmm. It's not obviously fake, but I'm suspicious.
See Pic.

>>45582638
How reputable are KAT these days anyway?
I've only searched there out of desperation when I couldn't find stuff elsewhere, at it's never had anything either.
>>
>>45582638
I've seen KAT delete torrents for bullshit reasons.
>>
>>45582796
What kind of torrents does it delete?
>>
>>45582314
Torrentz.eu

Jesus Christ are there really so many people that think TPB is the only place to get torrents?

Maximum pleb.

I don't. Just trying to educate the tpb reliant plebs. Plus, you've gotta start somewhere.

Checked up on my old Demonoid account earlier today and Demonoid is kinda shit. The things I looked up were DVD rips and had 1 or 2 seeders. I don't understand why people are migrating there.
>>
>>45584422
Nostalgia?

I'm kinda glad I never got in on Demonoid back when it was good. Hard to be disappointed by what it's become when i didn't really know what it used to be like.
>>
Can somebody explain what the fucking deal is with the piratebay.
Why do they keep fucking those guys up when there's a shit ton of other private and public trackers.
>>
>>45584710
Just look at how many people on /g/ are like "what do I do now that TPB is down guys?". Multiply that by a couple hundred thousand to get the number of normalfags who are in the same boat.

Piratebay is the most popular torrent site in the world, and you'd think that in this internet era where everybody knows how to search for shit, that people would just google "Piratebay alternative" or something, but nope. They're basically lost without it, and piracy is semi-effectively deterred for most people until it comes back up, and/or a small percentage of people wise up and learn how to internet more effectively.

I signed up for a month of Usenet.

now I realized I don't actually have anything to download

Fuck, I wish I could get a block account where I just pay upfront for 1TB of bandwidth and download whatever I want for the rest of my life
>>
>>45585120
I think the inertia has less to do with ability to use a search engine and more to do with trust.

TBP was/is a reasonably respected site. There was generally at least one sane person in the comments, and you knew that a search there was going to pull up at at least some relevant results.

Pulling up a list of torrent search sites from Google/Wikipedia/Wherever is trivial. Figuring which are any good will take time and effort.
>>
>>45585231
Huh. Maybe I've just been at this too long.

I picked up Torrentz.eu a long time ago and have picked out a bunch of reputable public trackers for when I need them. I rarely do anymore though, since I'm almost all private now.

That is such a clusterfuck of a website holy shit.

It's fucking basic. You search, you find your torrent, you download it. It's not complicated.

Bumping this thread, because I'm curious what /g/'s opinions on the different BT search sites are.

Like many anons ITT, I've been using kickass.to for a good while.

how can a tracker be private if anyone can get an invitation?
>>
Just use a search engine, google or any myriad of others.
>>
>>45587239
Thanks!
It sounds like there's a consensus on /g/ that KAT is the best general public search site now.
