There are quite a few. In order of preference, I used/tried:

• XMPP (Android-Conversations; Windows-Gajim)
• Element/Matrix
• Session
• Discord
• Slack
• Twinme
• Teams
• Skype
• Facebook Messenger
• Instagram DMs

Falling Lightblocks, available on his own website or GitHub.

TheOnion worthy title.

In hindsight, that’s what I’d go for. You could have audiobookshelf, tachiyomi or any of your favorite android reading apps. But the Kindle does what it does well, and for relatively cheap. Maybe in 5 years I’ll reconsider, if my kindle ever dies!

You know, I think I was too generous for YGGtorrent. Lately it has been hard to connect it to autobrr and Prowlarr. More of a B tier tracker. I heard good things about HD-Only but it’s been difficult to register. Qctorrent and t411 were the good days.

On the other hand, TL has been a pleasant surprise. I had an account with them for 5 years but forgot and never bothered until recently. It constantly has choice, retention, and decent monitoring. Many TV shows I have also release fast. What stands out is that it’s been very easy to build up my ratio. AR has been similar to TL but it’s taking me three times as long to build up ratio.

Avistaz is specifically for Asian content. Very good for hard to find stuff and their request community is excellent.

There’s a 5 year old Reddit thread where the creator shut down NBL and called out some Redditors and trackers he had beef with, but some didn’t even know why. Seems like he would go on tantrums and easily ban people too.

Just poor ways to manage whatever issues he had. Don’t know much more.

Yes, retention is very good on ANT and NBL. If it wasn’t of the past drama of the site owner, they would be A tier trackers on everyone’s lists IMHO.

It’s a fun compilation, happy to contribute something to it. Happy to give more info if need be.

Additional trackers and my ratings. Curious to see anyone’s take on them.

I highly appreciate a well organized tracker that also accommodates the *arr suite. Also if it’s the best in its category, even if it doesn’t hit the mark on other factors.

If drama doesn’t affect normal use of the website, then it’s not a big factor for me. I only seriously got into the private tracker scene 2 years ago.

Should we include public trackers?

Tried both and settled with AntennaPod when there were rumours of Google Podcasts shutting down a few months ago.

I now value more export/import features. I also enjoyed AntennaPod’s queue options more.

I personally enjoy the sliding feature, which also utilizes the right side but without taking any space. Sync and others have it.

Already am! Just used to GitHub and thought I could see a list of what’s being worked on. I imagine beta update posts will bring some light to this.

Thanks!

Thanks for the confirmation! Is there a way to follow development?
