minus-squareShyfer@ttrpg.networklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 months agoIs torrent galaxy still down? That was my go to and sounds like I have to find another. I am a little worried if they keep bringing down the big ones like that, that we’ll be left with less choices and it’ll be more difficult.
minus-squarebionicjoey@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·7 months agoThe nice thing about torrents is how lightweight they are. If one thing goes down, ten mirrors of that thing can pop up to take its place.
minus-squareScrollone@feddit.itlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·7 months agoTorrentGalaxy is up, but if you can’t open it maybe your country has DNS censorship. Just change your DNS servers to something like 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 (Cloudflare DNS and Google DNS respectively). You can change your DNS from either your computer settings or your router (the latter is recommended because it applies to all connected devices).
minus-squareareyouevenreal@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 months agoMost ISPs I have seen these days actually block stuff properly. DNS hacks are no longer sufficient. Luckily VPNs are cheap these days.
minus-squareShyfer@ttrpg.networklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 months agoOh Yay! Admittedly, I didn’t try it recently but I remember seeing an article that was down. If it’s back up, I’m glad to hear it.
