In general, yeah. Private torrent trackers tend to focus on specific types of content. Some might focus on cartoons. Some might focus on anime. Some focus on books. Some focus on video games. Public trackers, on the other hand, generally focus on everything, which, of course, means they won't have a lot of the older or more niche stuff, and they might be lacking in one or more categories (music, anime, books, TV, etc.).

It's also much less likely that a torrent on a private tracker will die because most private trackers enforce certain rules about seeding and because the people there are generally much more into seeding than most people on a public tracker. (Probably most people on public trackers simply download what they need and stop before seeding anything back.)

Private trackers are also typically the first (and sometimes only) places to get scene releases. Scene releases, which are done by private groups, are usually higher quality than stuff on public trackers. Sometimes, they leak onto a public tracker, but not usually.

Eh, Aniwave was a pretty big one for the anime community. From what I understand, it's the one most people fled to after KissAnime was taken down. Aside from that, I've never heard of any of the other sites they mentioned.

Aniwave (formerly known as 9anime) was, from what I understand, the site most people fled to after KissAnime bit the dust.

But why do that when I can watch this five hour YouTube documentary on the history of the chicken wing?

For better or worse, I have a school account linked to my OneDrive (makes it easy to hop on a school computer to work on stuff), so at least I probably won't see this.

I get your point, but I feel obligated to point out it wasn't his lobe that was shot. The part that was shot is called the helix.

I mean, sure. He's rich. He probably got plastic surgery or something to fix his ear.

Eh, I'm okay with an app as long as it's good.

The McDonald's app is not good. At all. In the slightest. It won't even let me login 99% of the time.

If Lemmy had gold, I'd give it to you.

And parsecs measure distance, not time, and yet here we are.

There's plenty of spacewalks in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels. They don't have gravity there and instead have to use thrusters or magnetized boots.
