Where do you find those? I use 1337 and dht search engines. Can't be bothered to fiddle with private trackers. Wondering if you found something better.

E.g. ext.to aggregates torrents from a lot of public trackers, very often you can find good releases there.

RARBG used to be the way to go, until they shut down. I'm not aware of a good public replacement.

I honestly wouldn’t bother with public trackers. They work great for debrid services with something like kodi or stremio but if you want to “own” or build your collection you have much better options 1. Private trackers - people seed, they have rules on uploads and actually moderate

2. Usenet is still alive and thriving for this.

3. Libraries still exist and you can rent and rip media there

4.Internet Archive is a great resource for old stuff

5. Just buy physical copies and rip em. Can check eBay etc.
