Do you have a list of movies, games and whatnot to pirate this year?
I know I do, something to make the holidays a little more cheery since budgeting appears to be tight. I need something to make me somewhat happy.

My VPN software is being shitty and constantly disconnects, paid $70 bucks for this crap and I cannot find a damn solution. PIA if anyone is interested, and welcome to better options or insights to why I’m having this problem.
I used PIA for about two months about half a decade ago. It was pure agony.
I’m enjoying Mullvad.
So crazy to hear this, I literally recommend PIA to everyone who asks. It’s cheap and hasn’t given me issues in 8 years of using it.
Plus it actually supports port forwarding still, unlike mullvad, unfortunately.
I’m a pretty low skill user admittedly, I only just figured out how to set up Jellyfin on my media server. My situation is pretty simple for now, but if I end up needing a feature I don’t get, I’ll rethink my options.
Ah gotcha, no worries.
You can get away without port forwarding if the Linux ISO you’re trying to get has a lot of peers who DO have port forwarding. But your speed could be slower because of it. And if you want a more obscure ISO that doesn’t have a lot of support, doesn’t have a lot of peers, then your speed will likely suffer, and might not be able to download anything at all.
It’s something to research. If you don’t like PIA, proton also has port forwarding 👍
Ohhh that’s good to know… do they block p2p traffic?
I don’t know about proton, I don’t think they do. PIA works fine also
I have PIA and haven’t had a single issue.
And yes. I stick with it because unlike Mullvad, PIA hasn’t pussied out (yet) and remove port forwarding
That’s a bummer. I’ve had PIA for almost 8 years straight, it’s been rock solid. I can count on one hand the number of issues I’ve had with them.
Granted, their headless Linux program, piactl, is finicky and not well documented. But once you get it dialed in, configured right, it just works.
Use it on my phone, laptop, several connections open at once, no problems 🤷♂️
Edit: Just read the second half of your comment. What’s your problem exactly? Maybe I’ve ran into it before, no promises haha
I can go into more detail after work but if you Google PIA keeps disconnecting, I have tried basically every fix that doesn’t involve regedit or cmd. I’m using the windows GUI, you think it’d be somewhat idiot proof. I have my torrent client tied to the virtual adapter as well so the torrent crashes every time it drops.
That sucks. Unfortunately I’ve never run it in Windows. I’ve run mostly Linux on everything for years now, I’m down to one never-used Windows desktop, and a VM on proxmox that I keep up to run a handful of critical windows-only programs.
I’m not sure I’d be much help to you
