📜 ➜ Megathread

⛵ ➜ Not so fast sailor! Do this first

  • Use Firefox + uBlock Origin with these optimized settings (Blocks advertisements & malware).
  • Change your DNS settings to one of these great choices (Bypasses website access limitations).
  • Use a reputable torrent client with a kill switch, such as qBittorrent (Allows torrenting).
  • Set up a VPN such as Mullvad or ProtonVPN (Changes IP address to hide identity).
  • Bind your torrent client to the VPN (Only allows torrenting when VPN is active).

🗺️ ➜ Bookmark these full backups

⚠️ ➜ Uncertainty

  • Any links that are not included in the entire Megathread have either not been approved by the moderators or the community, or have been deleted at some point. In other words, use extra caution anytime you sail in uncharted waters.
  • That said, as times change, so do the currents. What is seen as a safe route to great treasures now may soon be a shell of its former self or even be riddled with the black plague. Always exercise caution and if you notice problems with any of the sites in our Megathread, please contact the moderators.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this community on social.fossware.space before? Anyone know what happened?

I'm particularly interested because my main Lemmy account was on the fossware instance which seems to have disappeared overnight. Not sure if it's just temporarily down, or was moved here. I definitely can't log in to lemmy.dbzer0.com as my old account.

Not sure where best to post this question because the dbzer0 instance doesn't seem to have a meta community

Edit: looks like c/div0 might be the meta community

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No this community has always been here. There is another in [email protected] but it's a different community

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks! I'll keep a lookout on news of what happened to fossware (probably just down for server issues)

Hey all, so about 10ish years ago I used to torrent a few things, nothing heavy like games or programs but just TV shows and what not. I got burned pretty bad, had my computer compromised and files encrypted. I was able to salvage most of my rig but a lot of pictures and files were lost to the ether. I want to get back into this but understandably I'm pretty concerned about it. Any tips on getting safely back into sailing the seas?

Why most of the links redirect to reddit? I dont want to open that website.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

the first optimized settings image dont load

Is there a place, where I could find articles from media like WSJ, NYT, WP and other text content hidden behind paywalls?

[–] LudwigvanBeethoven 1 points 1 year ago

You can also install Bypass Paywalls Clean on browsers.

Is the Android Streaming Apps section of the wiki up to date? I was using cinema hd for a while, just downloaded cloudstream3 and now I'm wondering if there are better resources out there. I'm a streaming noob

What are folks using to search these days? Google has become a proprietary mess and searches yield results in cookie cutout websites who all have the same format.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Can ROMs be extracted from fitgirl repacks? I searched this question, and it pointed me to the Reddit MEGAthread. I found that through here, but I still can't find an answer. Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Can XDCC / IRC be added to the megathread?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sorry if this is not the place, but I've seen that pretty much all games from gog-games get flagged by the same vendor, I suppose that is a false positive?

Or is that website not recommend anymore?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

if it doesn't give a reason, it probably just trips on something common between all of the installers, the actual installing part

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Hey. I'm a noob pretty much. I was wondering if there is a way to test out TomTom Live traffic services on my Tomtom Rider 50. I bought it used, there's an account on it. I'm scared if I reset it, that the map will be gone. And that's 50€. I didn't find anything so far. Only thing I find is the apk for the mobile app, but nothing for the actual satnav

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to find Italian dubbed tv shows? I'm looking for old simpsons in particular.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Have you tried good old Usenet?
