Wow I'm definitely out of the loop. Any reason why?

It's basically the wild west nowadays, totally unmoderated.

About two or so years ago somebody on Reddit was saying it's basically a honeypot for catching people torrenting. But I have nothing to back this up and possibly my memory isn't accurate either. I've just avoided it since then though.

I'm sorry, I'm not plugged in enough to give you the rundown. Certainly plenty of people still use it without issue but last time I tried, I could only access it through mirrors. I also vaguely recall them only offering magnet links when my setup requires .torrent files for reasons that aren't worth getting into because I expect they're weirdly specific to my setup.
