I had a lot of success with StremIO and the TorrentIO addon, that allows me to stream directly from the torrents of various sites with autoplay, IMDB, remembering where I am at and all that good stuff


I would usually suggest Newpipe but that’s a little buggy rn so Libretube is probably your best bet, that even has sponsorblock aka it skips in video promotions from influencers too!


Interesting, seems like there is a Linux app now too, well still not a fan of externak devices just to sideload but luckily the EU will improve that with the Digital markets act I guess


There are ways to sideload apps on iOS but I think you need a Macbook to do so, I had a iPhone once because I got it for free and I will never touch one of those ever again!


I guess Lemmy users probably also have high sympathies for digital piracy, opposing copyright is very wide spread within the open source community but there are a lot of factors at play here and I’m glad that’s the case because I only started to really use it on Lemmy! :)


So the VIP can’t even be banned by a mod? That’s a fucked up system and I can only woder why it worked at all for such a long time!


With enough machines (especially powerful gaming rigs) you could probably still make a really decent amount and since the malware is detected by common antivirus tools and even Windows Defender as far as I can tell it’s most likely old and just used again by someone but you always have to be careful with all claims in the cracking scene and considering how long that site has been reliable I definitely have my doubts!


Thanks! I don’t know why a VIP would have this kind of power but that’s exactly the kind of explanation I was looking for because (as usual) a lot of people claim all kind of shit whenever they get a chance and it can be hard to understand what actually happened, glad it’s not as bad as it seemed at first glance! :)


I have seen multiple posts about the situation by now with various claims but no one seems to have actually looked into it so I have questions! Is it true that moderators defended the upload and silenced criticism, is it true that the crypto address in question can be linked to the sites admins and is it true that the same malware is all over the internet in countless releases? Not all of those are from this particular pist but if someone here knows the answers I would be happy to read them!


It’s definitely a real Tweet but I agree, if you visit the site to take a screenshit why not just copy that damn link!


If ypu pirate through Tor your are a idiot and if you run a exit node on your own IP you won’t have access to jack shit very soon!




I have seen people claim that there are infected copies all over the internet, not sure if it’s true but please be careful and make sure to use something like Virustotal and Malwarebytes if you aren’t sure!



I have seen someone claim that the Bitcoin address leads to the admins too, is that true or just made up bs? Ether way it doesn’t seem like they had any intention to get rid of that guy so I would be very careful next time you download something from there!



Please don’t, they have DMCA issues for ages because people try that but they are legally required to take that content down if they receive a request!


If it’s blocked in your country you probably don’t use a CDN without cencorship, I use Cloudflares 1.1.1.1 but Googles 8.8.8.8 should do the job too! ;)


Well on one hand the expception for AI is annoying but it’s also kind of the direction I try to convince people of for ages, FCK copyright!


Don’t worry, you are in a technical place here on Lemmy and we where all shocked how many fell for that bs, feel free to rant cuz you won’t find many crypto bros here! ;)


If you need Microsoft Office on Linux I recommend the web version of 360 and if you want to pirate it on Linux I would go for a VM, it’s not the best experiebce in Wine from what I have heared.


Same, I am a life long Firefox user and switch between the two, in most cases the results can keep up with DDG or beat it but sometimes (especially for regional stuff) it dose struggle and DDG dose a better job, that’s usually not piracy related tho.

I can highly recommend Brave search, they have their own index and don’t “comply” with the DMCA because it’s not actually required for a search engine but sadly also not forbidden. I love it every time piratebay.org shows up when it obviously should and not some scummy fake sites!
