Seems like another scraper site from therarbg team (they also run clone sites of TPB & others). Might be interesting if this one does indeed go independent & does its own thing.

There weren't any, it was just a troll account that asked admins at a bunch of different Lemmy instances to block anything related to piracy. Lemmy.world admins took the bait. Even in the original announcement they never mentioned anything about dealing with tons of takedown requests. In other words they were blocking piracy related content preemptively before any takedowns occurred.

It's nice they walked back that decision but I'm still not going to create an account there.

I wrote up a rough list of places to try in an earlier post you can check out, the OP in the other post added their own feedback. You can give those a go & see what you come up with, feel free to add your own comments as well :)

With public torrent sites a lot of them require you to apply to register & may/may not have their own requirements to be granted upload privileges.

Offhand it sounds like it could be a drop in replacement for you. But there are a lot of other variables you'd need to consider e.g. if you require specific app/TV support & don't like the current Jellyfin offerings.

Maybe others can clarify or you can post with any specific requirements/questions in the Jellyfin forums or the lemmy communities !jellyfin@lemmy.world / !jellyfin@lemmy.ml

That aside you could always just try it out & see how you like it.

I’ve been considering moving to Jellyfin for a while, but I’m worried they will do the same thing in future.

Currently would not be possible. Jellyfin does not have the sort of centralized accounts/logins that Plex does e.g. you're not asking Jellyfin devs for permission to log into your own server. That's just a Plex thing.

If you're asking could they add that "feature" in the future? Highly unlikely but I guess anything is possible. Were that to happen most likely the code would get forked into a new project.

PS - Jellyfin itself is a fork from Emby back when those devs decided to close their source. Myself & tons of other people dropped Emby at that point & migrated to Jellyfin. https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/about/

Basically, the author of the project scrapes the torrent DHT network

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 https://git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic but maybe I'm not looking in the right place?

You can create a new torrent for that data if you want, that way you can continue seeding it in a new torrent swarm.

Otherwise if you intend to seed in the old torrent swarm then you need the old .torrent for that. Search around maybe you'll find it (or if you remember where you downloaded it originally that's even easier).

Seems to be down, hopefully just temporary.

You don't, Transmission does not have proxy support. It was intentionally removed a while back & currently the devs have no plans to re-implement it e.g. https://github.com/transmission/transmission/issues/1375

Just use a VPN connection like others said.

and opened port 587 in my router

Agreed with the other comment, you definitely don't need or want to do that on your end. Note that your self hosted instance is trying to establish an outgoing connection with a random port to port 587 at wherever your hosted email is e.g. yourdockeripaddress:randomport --> mydomain.com.au:587

I don't have Bitwarden self hosted so can't offer much advice on a solution but...

I’ve also tried to connect with my gmail but no luck. When I try to verify my email I just get “An unhandled server error has occurred”

This makes me think there's something off with your environment, or the Bitwarden instance itself. Is there a way for you to verify that you can actually use those SMTP servers outside of Bitwarden? This sounds silly but in the past I've done a test installation of an email client with ability to connect to 3rd party SMTP servers e.g. Thunderbird just to verify my own internet connection can actually initiate an SMTP connection to an external server. You want to at least rule out that the hosted email server isn't blocking you and/or have some over-active firewall on your end blocking things.

This is all in the absence of more verbose logging (not sure if Docker or Bitwarden can give you that, something worth checking).

Looks like you can add Ext to the list, according to this post in !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com they do allow uploading torrents there.

That's interesting, didn't know that Ext allows users to upload/add new torrents there. I thought they simply added torrents from other torrent sites, just about all the torrents indexed there are sourced elsewhere.
