Anyone interested in scraping and doing a backup, I’d be more than happy to help.

    I have been searching extensively for a place to upload torrents. I refuse to use CloudFlare sites and I refuse to solve Google CAPTCHAs. These constraints have killed every torrent site I’ve encountered (including .onion sites, strangely enough).

    I was quite enthusiastic to see a commandline tool. In principle, using a pull request to upload torrents would be fine. But it looks like npm is used, which I think recently crashed for a lot of people recently and the ultimate problem was that npm relies on CloudFlare. I also see that the project is on gitlab.com. I can never login to gitlab.com because of a google captcha. And AFAIK, doing a PR is only possible by logging in via the gui, correct?

    So I’m still looking for a way to upload a torrent file without solving a Google CAPTCHA and with CloudFlare out of the loop.

      I’d be all for adding another remote, the problem is the repo is really large. The torrents.csv which contains all the torrents is only ~ 80MB, but the torrent_files.csv which contains all the files is now at 2.5GB so its not light on space to host.

      I can also just add them if you give me a location to download the torrent files, since that’s what the scanner works with anyway.
