I don't even know what Usenet is, so I'm 100% torrents, which I keep seeding ad infinitum as I don't have storage issues. My most-seeded thing is nearing 150 ratio lol

Yeah, but those are all free. I'm looking for some mods that you can only have by Patreon or other payment, for Assetto Corsa

Anyone knows of a network of shared pirated mods or something? I'd like to get some paid mods for a game

Absolute GOAT. Thanks a lot

Thanks for the psychological evaluation!

Is it really creeping if the profile is public? Same thing as checking it daily with your Instagram account, but without the privacy issues

I don't have an account myself, and the photos and videos I'm trying to download en masse belong to a famous person's public account. Is there anything I can use to do it (as long as it's not creating an account lol), preferably proxied tools as apparently I get blocked while behind a VPN?

Thank you!

Any ideas why this happens? I've gotten some blank results as well in some occasions and now I'm wondering if this is why

Mr. GOG comes to your house and destroys the drive you're storing the game on

Same approach, especially now that I upgraded my storage. Got a ratio of 135 on one file, no idea how or why though

Hey, I've been torrenting on Linux through the ProtonVPN program without issues for the past months.

I don't know the specifics because I'm new to Linux, but I followed the official guide on how to set it up and everything just worked. Don't even need to change the port in qBit, I can upload anyway as long as I pick a P2P server in Proton, and very fast too (depending of what people want me to seed), uncapped upload speed often nears my max upload bandwidth.

Also binding qBit to the VPN is not a problem, just follow the official guide. Tested it now, and if I disconnect the VPN, qBit shows a red world in the network status and speeds go to zero, so it works.

It's true that the Linux client is not as fully-fledged as the Windows one, but it's not unusable.

I'm on PoP!_OS if it can be of any help. If you have questions that might help you with using Proton on Linux feel free to ask and I'll try my best!

This is the most plausible explanation to me as well

Or an easy way to download a small APK directly from the PSV, whichever you know how to do lol

I set up the hotspot on my phone, connect the PSV to it, open VitaShell and launch the FTP server; I use Amaze file manager to set up the FTP client and correctly input the PSV FTP server's IP and port... and nothing, can't connect to it. I've also tried different FTP clients, still nothing.

It would be much easier if I could download the file directly from the PSV, but it's a VPK and I don't have that plugin to download any files regardless of extension; I also tried uploading the file, with an edited extension (.mp4), to several free file hosting sites, but because of the old browser on the PSV I usually get stuck just before I get to it

Any help?

edit: remembered something similar happened months ago, the issue was, and is, me using a VPN. If I disable it, I can connect to the FTP. I still can't move files, or see any folders on the PSV, though

Not from the same source, but I'm in the middle of getting a 5GB file that took me five days so far and will take another five to complete. After that, I think I will keep sharing for as long as possible this one, since I see a lot of peers every day, even though there's only one seeder, from which I'm currently downloading at 10Kbps (and not because of my bandwidth, I think it's theirs that's a bit on the slow side).

I have slow upload, but once there are two seeds things should get better for all other peers, compared to now haha

VPN isn't specifically for pirating, personally I could even torrent without it, no one would give a crap; my situation aside, you can DDL without a VPN and you'd still be in the clear
