So, I’ve tried to get into torrentgalaxy to get some stuff and on the top of the website there’s this message:

|NEWSFLASH| Adblock is actively breaking site features again, disable when experiencing any issues.

Trying to find a torrent (Firefox, uBlock origin just updated) leads to results without names and figuring out how to get into the actual page of a given torrent leads to the page without the download torrent/get magnet link links.

I’ve tested with a browser without adblock and lo an behold, the issues are gone, but the site is obviously unusable.

Am I the only one experiencing this? There’s no honor among pirates? Any other alternative?

    Basically, the author of the project scrapes the torrent DHT network

    Is that accurate? Where is DHT mentioned?

    Neither their github nor their main site makes any mention of DHT, also don’t see any DHT scraper in the git page https://git.torrents-csv.ml/heretic but maybe I’m not looking in the right place?
