Don't worry it opens up pretty frequently.
Seeding 1 for 1 isn't what they're looking for in users as a general rule, they're looking for people who will seed forever.
You're probably more likely to meet people who have access to those sites in self hosting communities where they can share with friends who they know have the infrastructure to benefit those communities.

My main hypervisor is proxmox which runs an unraid vm with the iGPU passed through to accelerate PLEX and disk controllers to manage the storage. I also have 2 Endeavour OS VMs, one that runs Thunderbird and Insync. Another that has a quadro p2000 passed through to tinker with. I also have a homeassistant vm and a proxmox CT running docker.
I'm working up to transitioning the dockers on unraid to a proxmox container but at the same time if it's not broke why fix it.
I also want to mess with networking by putting in OPNsense or pfsense and routing some traffic through a vps.
I'm on a dynamic ip and I've been considering doing this just to stop my remote services from being glitchy whenever the ip changes.
But I need to setup pfsense or OPNsense first so I can route everything properly.
I'm excited to see what happens, a significant amount of knowledge is moving to a much more democratic platform. If the people who can give useful answers to questions are here others will end up moving here to get access to that.
I know that I'm going to make an effort to help make this place worth using.
I pick the side of the Taiwanese and what they want for themselves. Only the unethical would try to force them into something they don't want.
Thanks for explaining.
It will be very interesting seeing how the project progresses.
And yet these places succeed in creating true archives because they don't allow free loaders
People who think like you do so because you don't appreciate the effort that's put into creating an environment where torrents don't die.
From those top sites stuff can then be spread via people making requests at more accessible trackers.
This is why having a public space organised by ourselves is the way forward. Everything else is just about manipulating you to extract as much as possible value from you.
This is where I'm at.
Due to the clients Plex is more convenient for my users but most of them would buy a cheap device that would maintain their access if I swapped.
In the long run I'm expecting to do it but right now Plex suits my use case better.
The general pattern is that 4k will be x265 and 1080P encodes with DV / HDR10 need to be x265.
But non HDR / DV 1080P and below is x264.
That's what the encoders on the cabal trackers are doing.
