I searched for ages for a replacement of something like torrentz, and the rarbg drop made me start the search again. I ended up trying the included search in qbittorrent, and I’m very happy with the results, it scans many public trackers, and I have always found what I wanted.

To be clear, qbittorrent is a desktop app for linux/windows/mac, that has a panel where you can search for torrents:

    seconded. i use qbittorrent search now almost exclusively for my torrent searches. no more jumping from site to site searching for what’s out there. of course, it’s not definitive, but it’s pretty good.

      Why not take the next step and use the *arr suite to handle all that for you?

          Day to day things are automated once I add movies/tv/music to the wanted lists. Maybe 5% of the time I search around manually if I’m looking for something really specific or want to build ratio on certain trackers.

          It’s as simple as adding a title to a list and then waiting 10-15 mins for it to show up on my media server or adding an upcoming thing to a list and then getting it the instant someone uploads it at some point in the future.

          My seedbox has the are suite as a single button install.

          Since setting it up my torrent interaction is almost nothing. Just use an app (nzb360) to add movies or shows as I hear about them. And they just auto download when avaliable. It’s fantastic
