RARBG shutting down left a huge hole for me and I can’t figure out what’s a good alternative for it other than 1337. Any suggestions?

Since no one has posted it yet, this site hosts a massive dump of every RARBG release ever, and you can easily search through it. Games, movies, shows, books, everything RARBG ever released is available there. There's 5 and a half petabytes of data there, it's absurdly large.

ditch torrents. usenet is still alive and kicking

Usenet requires paying for a service though, right?

Cheaper than a vpn (usenet instead of vpn), better availability/more content, 70+mbps continuous downloads, no copyright claims.

Worth it. 6$/mo with Frugal Usenet + NZBGeek

I hear it isn't great for niche content. I don't want Barbie, I want Mars Needs Women, so I'm worried that isn't the option for me.

I've found more content to be available through usenet than public torrent trackers. The first two days of usenet instead of torrents I grabbed 2.8tb of content that I had been searching for via torrents and 15+ indexers. (content accumulated in Sonarr/Radarr that previously couldn't be found)

Theres currently one 2267 day old copy of Mars Needs Women available via NZBGeek that I just downloaded successfully.

TorrentGalaxy is a pretty good alternative for RARBG. There's a ton of other sites out there too but 1337 and TorrentGalaxy are probably the two best options at the moment for general torrents.

The Bay never went away. It's always been there for you and it will always be there for you.

Correct! Is that particularly important?

For variety of reasons. First, if an uploader sends a file that is malicious, it can't be taken down since it is not moderated. Second, I could create a torrent for "Oppenheimer" and name the file as the same with proper meta data but upload a fake one. It can't be removed since there is no moderated. Also, the chances of people uploading "bad" content are high too, though I don't know whether people do that though.
