About to see? My friend, we never stopped. Especially now, more people have started to look into self hosting.
I never stopped once I saw that the shit you pay for is not even yours anymore. Unless it's indie games, I just straight up download the game. Could care less about online gaming. (Thx ftp)
Can you point me in the right direction of where to start? My last adventures of file sharing ended with Napster and Limewire.
Well theoretically...
get a vpn
deluge (others will pile in with apps no doubt)

Once you get your feet back under yourself, you can start looking at usenet and such
Oh wow Usenet is still a good spot? That brings back good memories of sailing the seas.
Right Usenet and IRC all memory lane. Lol.
I agree with this guy.
Look into usenet, sabnzbd (or nzbget) and the ***arr programs.
Cost you a max $10/month, depending on how serious you are at hoarding, and how far back you want to go.
If I were to do such a thing I would find myself quite happily served by the above without the need for a usenet acct, but of course this is an entirely theoretical discussion from the comfort of armchairs so reality may differ for various parties puffs pipe
You don’t even need a vpn, just pirate the shit
eh, depends on your country. VPNs are worth the arse coverage.

This is what I'm talking about. Welcome to the seven seas matey!
You may be looking for 'Free Media. Heck Yeah'.
I thought this community had a megathread pinned with info answering exactly that?
Naw, lots of us stopped when Netflix streaming came in full swing.
Anime was still not big when Netflix came in. Foreign movies were also not available yet either. Programs, music, and all that stuff was still hard to get if it was not distributed by a US company.
Yeah, but I didn't care about any of that.
