      If you are forced to disable your vpn there is more risk. I’m not sure if some permit a vpn but I wouldn’t be trusting any of them without one.

    Finding public torrents for audio books is utter bullshit in my experience. Myanonamouse has a massive selection, is friendly and well organised and doesn’t have absurd rules, just reasonable ones.

    I love the place.

    For anything else not audio book related public trackers work just fine for me.

          The language German 😅 If you have any clue where and how I could get them without a private tracker you would make my day

            Without private trackers the best way to get German content would probably be through Usenet. Scenenzbs.com would probably be the best indexer there.

            Getting into some of the larger German private Torrent trackers isn’t that hard though.

    Not for me.

    1. My setup puts all external traffic from my torrent container through the VPN
    2. Getting into a private tracker is a pain
    3. Setting up the VPN exception is a pain
    4. I won’t even know if the tracker is worth it until I’m already in and can see their library

    I’ve only been part of one private tracker, and I got kicked from them after not logging in for a month despite meeting ratios. haven’t bothered since then
