Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Private tracker plus encryption. Good luck.

Issue is getting into the tracker, yeah? Back in the day it was going into random irc channels to beg for an invite, along with like 100 other randoms doing the same. I would imagine not much has changed in that regard, it just happens on Discord or Telegram?

I got into all the private trackers I'm on (4) during their open signup periods. Never had to beg for an invite. Just check from time to time.

Any chance you might name said trackers, so that I know what sites to watch?

TorrentLeech is the one I use most. Funfile and Pretome that branched off from it are the other popular ones.

I think you can also watch similarly named reddit without having to even create an account.
