I stayed on Reddit for the longest time. I've been a user since the mass Digg migration. I've continued to use the site less and less. However, it seems the site quality continues to decline and userbase goes us.

There are still a few good subs with active members but even those still have some issues. I think discussion on the internet on general has gotten significantly worse overall.

This is the best of the really big general trackers. It's not perfect, but pretty close for a tracker of its size. Much better than IPT and FL in my opinion. I use this more than any other tracker just out of convenience and the fact the swarms are always so big.

I think it's the older way around. There are really only 3 or 4 countries where using a VPN to pirate is needed. I'm just willing to bet you live in one of those countries.

You would reuse the same password or use the same password with slight variations. I would also often see passwords written down on sticky notes. People sometimes has different passwords but stores them unencrypted in password.xls or something similarly named.

Thank God for password managers these days. I haven't refused the same password for many years now. I generate three random words with a number and special character for all my passwords.

Jackett can be run on any computer. It doesn't need a server or any serious hardware. It can probably be run on a $20 Pi. It's just allows you to interact with trackers via API calls.

I use Prowlarr via Docker now a days. It's provides a much better experience to interact with othe instances of ARRs.

Appreciate the well thought out reply. I came to Lemmy for good discussion like this. It makes me happy to know that people with suffering points can still have a conversation on the internet without turning into a flame war or downvoted brigade. Appreciate you.

The comment section of Digg was very different from Reddit. The Digg redesign was the original reason I ended up moving to Reddit.

Their were some one word replies and grammar mistakes but it was certainly not the norm in the subs I frequented at the time.

I can't say much about other social media sites, as Reddit is the only one I have used with any regularity.

Bernie is too liberal for all those big donors who pump up the Democrats via Super PACs. He might get in the way of them profiting off the American people. Bernie would have been the best choice for this country at beating back the MAGA movement before it became what we have now.

Whose ready for some AOL ultimate Frisbee?

To answer the question, I don't think they should be used for anything. Keep a small stack for a rainy day and get rid of the rest. There is a reason they are all it thrift stores and being given away for free. Their are much better alternatives out their for storage. Unless you are a hoarder. Then, just add them to your pile of crap you will never use/need again.

I have burned thousands of CD/DVDs in my life but maybe only 10 in the past 15 years or so.
