Ahh yes, the ol' complete lack of nuance. A game isn't good so it has to be bad.

Seems the stupidity is contagious around these parts considering you go on to showcase situations of nuance. Engage brain please.

That and a general lack of availability of manga in the west. English releases are often years behind the Japanese ones, if they get brought over at all. It's why there are so many translation groups.

Time to play whack-a-mole. And the moles are pissed.

I think it just comes down to habit and wanting to keep things simple. The adage "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" exists for a reason, after all. I never even bothered going as far as to trying block the ads. They suddenly appeared for me one day but would never render, the panels just kept flashing at me. It might have been while looking up a fix - I can't remember - but it was around that time that I also heard about the undisclosed mining issue so I quickly jumped ship. Been happily using qbittorrent ever since and now wouldn't really be able to swap again thanks to finding a proper dark mode theme for it. So few others seem to have it and I have no idea what I'm doing with theme creation.

Which is the "only decent alternative"?

I honestly couldn't say how long. I know I was late to the party on knowing what was going on but even I moved on from it a long time ago now.

Then enjoy. It just isn't for a lot of people. You have helped as a statistic to the original question though.

Took long enough. uTorrent has been cancerous for a long time now.

It's not bad but it's pretty bare. A lot of people like their bells and whistles these days.

Edit: Changed the wording to be less broad for all the "But I..." specials.

Is libgen still going? I tried to get on .is a few days ago and have had nothing since. Have they possibly changed domain?

While you're using no evidence whatsoever to convince people they're wasting your money. I know which one of these requires less mental gymnastics. What I don't understand is what you're getting out of your little campaign if you expect nothing out of the average internet-goer? Are you one of the Riseup leads looking for suckers to steal the data of? One of their advertising partners who farm that data? You clearly have some kind of incentive for all the bullshit you're spewing. What I gain is making sure the less savvy don't fall for it.
