I’m trying to dl a documentary from 2015 called Sensitive but there are no seeds/peers. I searched the piratebay, 1337x, yts, torrentz2. Any idea where to search further?

    I’ve had luck before just leaving something in a ready state for a few days. Sometimes a seeder will appear for a brief moment and bless you with their bandwidth. Remember to pay it forward in cases like that where the thing is rare and not in a lot of demand. You can theoretically leave it running forever and never worry about seeding too much.

      Also a good idea to get a seedbox.

      If that’s the correct one i can also say that from the Usenet side Drunkenslug also finds 2 entries (1080p h264; one with 4.8 another with 3.3gb). Didn’t bother downloading, but the uploads arent that old and have some grabs so should work just fine.

    You can start looking for another torrent that has at least one or two seeds, and even if they have none, add them to your download queue

    If you’re lucky, someone, with some of those torrents, will connect eventually, maybe

    You could also search for a direct link, download it, and upload it yourself for future pirates

    Or as a last resource, make a sacrifice, buy a cd copy if it exists, rip it, and be the one to put it back online

    Good luck matey

    One plan is to leave it leaching for weeks and hope someone appears (then you must seed)

    Another is to search the hash to try find more versions with different trackers

    FWIW: archive.org torrents are perma-seeded. If you can find the torrent on archive, you’re in business.

          Put the text you want to be the link in brackets then immediately follow with the URL in parenthesis. For example [your text](https://lemmy.world) turns into your text.
