I used to use thepiratebay.org, but recently it seems the quality of the site has degraded.
I sometimes also use 1337xx.to , but that site seems to have a very small selection.
Note that I couldn’t find an answer to this question in the wiki + meathread, so if the answer is already there, please direct my attention to it 🙏🏴☠️
While the suggestions by other commenters to use Qbittorrent’s search functionality combined with add-ons (including one for Jackett integration) is a great way to index public tracker releases, I’d also recommend periodically checking for open signups to TorrentLeech given that some releases are either better seeded there or have higher fidelity video and audio tracks. Some private trackers are even better, but TorrentLeech is among the easiest to join.
Better, follow /r/trackersignups. There are more trackers than just TorrentLeech.
I found torrentdownload.info when searching on bing. Only use it for specific things though, as there’s a lot of porn.

Recently??? 😏
It’s mostly been fine-ish for anything that can’t be infected with viruses (music, video, roms, etc - usually.) There are way better options today but as long as you’re not going there for software it’s still usable.
But why. There are so many good, legit places. Why do you feel you owe them your allegiance. Even despite knowing it’s a scam. This is the weirdest behaviour to me, sorry.
It’s actually decent for finding really old, less popular movies/tv.
How often do you find torrents with active seeds?
On piratebay? Never!
stremio + torrentio + real debrid= good time
Just another douche trying to capitalize on misspellings or close enough URLs to shill their ads, or javascript mouse clicks, etc. There are tons of imposter sites for the bigger public trackers.
Ya hopefully that’s all it is and not something malicious…but I wouldn’t trust anything off it.
They just want ad clicks. It’s a really basic scam. Duplicate the website. Flood it with javascript mouse clicks and you can get an ad impression for every 3/4 clicks. Multiply that by thousands you can make decent coin.
That’s all they are really after.
Bitsearch is a good indexer for finding torrents from across multiple sites, but check the source as best you can, and then use a VPN and scan the files after.

You can also search in qbittorrent with the search plugin, it’ll be easier to see the sources from there.
snowfl has almost never let me down! Looks like it only shows the same ones you found tho
I just have a bunch of search addons for different sites directly in qBittorrent. I haven’t made a website search for a long time.
How does this work?
the plugins are already built-in in the standard installation, you just have to enable them before first use and that is it. after that you just use the search box.
Sometimes you have to open the plugin thing on the search tab and click “update” to get them to appear
i use the search box in qbittorrent and it works just fine 🤷♂️
The other day I found a .torrent file for a movie on aMule. It had +20 seeders.
I use YTS for movies, and then TorrentGalaxy, BTMet and sometimes BTDigg for everything else
