DDL is fine if you know where to look, Indian pahe uploads to mega, onedrive, pixeldrain, especially the last one has pretty much no limits and their X265 rips are on par with rarbg

depends on country where you live and how long you seed

check Indian Pahe or PSA WF, both for DDL links, they are quite fast and pretty good quality X265 rips, better than YTS and most of the stuff, X265 Pahe on par with rarbg

public tracker I can easily search directly from qbit, also good for newest releases

Pahe for DDL stuff, if I want better X265 quality at small size (PSA used to be good, but they fucked up something and I can't play their X265 rips anymore on TV, X265 Pahe rips always work)

ain't gonna pay for usenet or getting invited to private tracker

why would I even care about it, if only thing I torrent are movies and TV shows?

no, 1337x.to is the official one

I dunno man, I just entered "c h u d 1984" into qbit search and immediately got 1.6GB 1080p YTS rip result, even some integral cut

but yeah 1337x search plugin seems broken, not getting any results for few days, everything I get is from bt4gprx.com and torlock plugins, even torrentgalaxy plugin seems not work

what's the point of SSD for archival purposes? seem like less safe option than HDD and speed is not really issue for long term archiving or watching TV shows/movies, I don't really see point in SSD besides running OS/apps

I don't really care about the site, but their releases were fast and had consistent X265 quality, nothing new matches them

Pahe is quite fast, PSA recently did something to their encoding and often/mostly can't play them anymore on my TV, they worked fine up until last year, not sure what they messed up, at least with pahe X265 I have guarantee it will work

why? ublock works fine to block sponsored stuff

those are Android phones available in the market, if you want usable smaller new phone then good luck finding one because they dont exist

they are rare to find when I searched recently for X265 1080p releases, I mean for TV shows I downloaded PSA, Elite or mostly megusta anyway, but for movies I downloaded just one time now Infinity, will see how many releases they will have, we will only see what will be the situation

yeah, consistently great 1080p X265 releases you could rely on them, this was a big loss for me, nobody release that many X265 releases that fast, PSA only mainstream, megusta only TV shows, everything else either too slow or too rare

there is Xiaomi 12 and upcoming Pixel 8, both overal better options than everything you listed

Sony used to seriously fuck up camera if you installed custom ROM, not sure if they abandoned this user friendly practice

you forgot most importantly it's 3 times more faultier than other brands which have 99-100% reliability, while zenfones like 96-97%, these data are publically available in european online shops

be aware that this option lowers the already low image quality

I am aware of that, but already low quality photo (compared to Pixel/iPhone) has even worse quality with this option.

yeah, great phone if you dont mind crap SoC for the price, crap camera, no 4K video, remote control aspect ratio and crap software updates

I think for that money I would rather buy Xiaomi 12 or deal with Pixel 6A size

Galaxy S21/22/23, if you dont mind shutter lag

Zenfones, if you dont mind 3 times more faulty hardware than other brands, shit software support, bad software optimization, meh camera and bad VFM

Xiaomi 12, if you dont mind MIUI or installing custom ROM

Xperia phones if you dont mind remote control aspect ratio, shit software updates, meh camera and insane price

Pixel 8 if you dont mind waiting, it should be under 70/150mm judging by display size
