    Finding public torrents for audio books is utter bullshit in my experience. Myanonamouse has a massive selection, is friendly and well organised and doesn’t have absurd rules, just reasonable ones.

    I love the place.

    For anything else not audio book related public trackers work just fine for me.

      It is diverting the content from public torrents for the sole reason that no one can be bothered to make decentralised cataloguing work better than in the early 1990s in my very biased opinion.

      I agree. It’s one of my favourite websites. Not just for the torrents but the community is really great too. The book clubs are super neat too!

          The language German 😅 If you have any clue where and how I could get them without a private tracker you would make my day

            Without private trackers the best way to get German content would probably be through Usenet. Scenenzbs.com would probably be the best indexer there.

            Getting into some of the larger German private Torrent trackers isn’t that hard though.
