Just woke up. 28 new applications! Each time i refresh the page i get two new apps.

Welcome to all former users of r/GenP! An admin is talking to one of their mods about getting their community onto here, hopefully we can work something out.

I hope you all like the Instance, and Lemmy as a whole.

But guys... You gotta read the application ;) Just because it's simple doesn't mean you get to ignore and get it wrong completely :D

As of writing this i just got 6 more applications ;-;

Came over after reading GenP was nuked on Reddit. And I suppose I am to type "I agree to follow the golden rules, GenP, 3 sisters"?

Glad to be here. Can anyone give me a recommendation of a good VPN for p2p or should I get a vps and run my app from there? I used Vuze and utorrent back in the day and am out of the loop. Just tired of the 10 subscriptions these days and then my show ends up switching to a different provider that I don't have. Also, I'm boycotting Spotify and have my old iPod back out. Forgot how much I loved that thing!

if you'retech-savvy-: mullvad VPN, and a selfhosted seedbox using qbittorrent or deluge (both are FOSS torrent clients)

if you're not as tech savvy: protonVPN, (and their app suite with the "unlimited" package, its really good, and a good price for how much you get), plus qbitorrent.

and whatever you do.... MAKE SURE TO BIND THE CLIENT TO THE VPN INTERFACE

I am in no way against paid software.

I am, however, against

  1. actively making sure that people, who can't afford it, don't get the software

  2. only offering your software as a subscription service

  3. only offering a license that can be revoked at any point instead of the actual software.

Piracy and free software helped me immensely from high school to college, and it's still helping me now in my working life. Really thankful for everyone involved in maintaining GenP and this community!

I'm in!

Thank you dbzer0 for hosting GenP <3

I've been a pirate since 1998 when I was 8 years old so I know a couple of things that I felt would qualify and well look: here I am :D
