It's been a while since I've heard about libgen and aa - and actually i'm not sure how they operate with direct downloads of copyrighted material? I find my ebooks through more conventional p2p means, but i've always just assumed that was necessary to avoid sudden takedowns

what is your p2p method, out of curiosity?

any good trackers for good linux iso availability?

with torrenting i sometimes can't find some more obscure distros i'm looking for...

As a rule I don't announce my trackers publicly so they can continue existing as my trackers, but the one I use mostly is small-rodent themed.

I'll DM you
