I like sites that are aggregators of content (no one site, necessarily). I think the best move is to find release groups you like the quality of and trust. From there, find out where they upload. I was a big fan of RARBG remuxes (x265) and RARBG-affiliated TV release groups, so it took a bit to find acceptable and consistent replacements. It's worth the effort.
Who did you replace them with?
For movies, PSA slotted right in the quality/size hole RARBG left for x265 movies. There's groups with better quality at higher filesizes (like QxR), but the ~2GB 1080p stuff PSA puts out suits my needs well.
TV is a little eh. XEN0N is where I ended up, but definitely isn't on par with ION10/ION265. I haven't found a great catch-all replacement. But I haven't had to grab a ton of TV lately, to be honest.
You'd probably like Pahe.in releases, I also landed on PSA (I use it for both movies & tv) and Pahe is pretty close to it in quality/size. Pahe doesn't have torrents tho, but I think their GDrive and Mega links are pretty easy to get to; compared to some of PSA's direct downloads you only need one real countdown and less than 10 clicks to get the file
I use 1337 for PSA torrents, which are a little behind what's on the official site. Otherwise, I don't think I'd want to use their site directly. Pahe definitely seems more straightforward. I'll check out a few of their releases and see if it works for me. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thank you!
