The best alternative is one that you can self-host and/or isn’t centralized.
My favorite option right now is torrents-csv.ml, since it’s “a collaborative repository of torrents, consisting of a searchable torrents.csv file.”
Basically, the author of the project scrapes the torrent DHT network and compiles a csv of all the torrent magnet links into a CSV file that’s searchable on this site. You can selfhost your own private instance of the site by following the instructions on the repository here: git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic/torrents-csv-server
I saw it a bit of time ago… how safe it is? The access is not centralized, but the data it gets in it is, right? Or it is a service in the same webserver the one that does the scraping?
Will look into it when I got time… always is docker, jeez…

Is that accurate? Where is DHT mentioned?
Neither their github nor their main site makes any mention of DHT, also don’t see any DHT scraper in the git page git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic but maybe I’m not looking in the right place?
My current laptop might as well be from the trash lol. I do have old android devices but that seems inefficient especially with battery concerns. I do have an old android tv box I never got working. Maybe that’s something I’ll look into. Thanks.
Any media can contain exploits, for the most part if you stick to reputable uploaders you should do alright but it’s essentially an unavoidable problem. Keep your media player up to date
That’s my understanding as well. You could have a game on Steam that you haven’t even updated in years, and then you suddenly have to start paying for new installs from existing owners.
Actually, it’s potentially even worse. You could have a game that you released and then later removed from every storefront, but if people keep installing it, Unity will demand payment.
Idk I guess I mean like boosted vendors. In 90s and early 00 I used to go to expos or even certain street vendors and they would have boosted or ripped movies and software.
And in terms of porn I mean sex spots scattered around cities and towns.
It has to be executed to have any danger, so you’d need a zero day exploit for your media player, even then it should be contained at user level rather than system. I’ve not really heard of it happening, but it’s theoretically possible I guess, would take a really bad coding mistake. Keep your players updated and you should be fine.
