You don’t have to use doublespeak, neither of these communities have rules against piracy.
Here’s some of my personal list, in no particular order: (full list)
- Steam Underground - cs.rin.ru - clean steam files, and the cracks to use them, - requires an account, my personal favorite
- Library Genesis - libgen.rs - libgen.is - libgen.rs - exactly what it says on the tin
- ZLibrary - https://zlibrary-global.se/ - exactly what it says on the tin
- Fitgirl Repacks - fitgirl-repacks.site - video game repacks, need to be installed
- Dodi Repacks - dodi-repacks.site - video game repacks, need to be installed
- Vimm’s Lair - vimm.net - old games and the emulators to run them
- WinWorldPC - winworldpc.com - old software and OSes
- Good Old Downloads - gog-games.to - games, this site was temporarily taken down by IGGames a while back
- The Index - theindex.moe - japanese media, mostly anime
- LookMovie2 - lookmovie2.to - movies, use adblocker
- Mobilism - forum.mobilism.org - modded android apps, requires account to use search
Sites to actually avoid:
- IGG-Games - has had many viruses (ex. cryptominers, RATs) and DRM in their cracked games, got the great GoodOldDownloads shut down (temporarily)
- SteamUnlocked - it’s ad infested and has slow downloads, also takes some games from IGG and other sus sites
- Torrenting (copyrighted content) without a VPN - depends on your country, but you can get sent cease and desist letters
- The Pirate Bay - filled with malware (including from skulled users)
- Kickass Torrents - the real site was shut down years ago, only copycats of dubious quality exist now
+1 for cs.rin.ru, if I can’t find a crack on there I don’t bother looking anywhere else.
If you have trouble finding the right forum from the landing page just go to any game on fitgirl’s site and it’ll have a link back.

If you RTFM, they’re just matching the style of the linked comment.
What about filecr.com?
I’ve downloaded 7 windows applications from them 3 years ago. No issues or weird behavior so far.
I haven’t heard of filecr, I wouldn’t know
https://steamrip.com/ - games, pre-installed.
Noooo I was keeping vimm’s as my private little secret don’t want it to get emuparadised
Don’t Straisand Effect it.
I will avoid them. Thank you for the useful information! I will definitely add them to my bookmarks so I can check if I accidentally visit any of them. What a terrible world…
Can anyone suggest a good source for audiobooks?
deleted by creator
This is actually a great resource. I use the libby app and besides having to finish my audiobook in an allotted time and waiting for popular books it’s nice not having to sail the seas
I didn’t know that was an option. This is much better - thank you.
audiobookbay.nl, use the search, requires a account (it is open)
There are some nice suggestions in the FMHY site.
