If you're into audiobooks, Myanonymouse is essential but easy to get into. Other than that, I'm the same. 20 years of torrenting and I've never needed a private tracker
It's mostly just an elitist thing
I'd say it's more convenience than elitism.
I'm in BTN and it's the only indexer I use for my Sonarr instance because it has absolutely everything. I've never not been able to find something and almost everything I download will saturate my 1.2 Gbps connection.
For Radarr I don't have any private trackers and it takes 35 public trackers to get coverage that is almost as good. The options I'm given are way less organized and download speeds are a gamble. It's not really an issue because I rarely watch movies, but I definitely understand why private trackers are so sought after. I'll eventually try to get into some smaller ones which tend to be pretty easy to do.
I've been using audiobookbay, does myanonymouse have more content?
About the same, but guaranteed seeders. Half the stuff on ABB will never download, MaM takes seconds
That's great, I noticed ABB doesn't track my ratio anywhere even though they require an account.
Between The Internet Archive, Anna’s Archive, and AudiobookBay, I’ve never struggled to find books on public trackers.
