    Rarbg closed down last week unfortunately and it was possibly the greatest public tracker of all time.

    1337x, torrentgalaxy, and rutracker are probably the best public sources now.

    TorrentLeech is one of the easier private trackers to get into but just finished its round of welcoming former RARBG users. Just keep an eye out for when they open registrations again and be sure to read the rules of any private tracker you become a member of.

    Prefer hevc (h.265) encodes for the best tradeoff between file size and device compatibility imo.

    In terms of file-size at comparable quality: AV1 > h.265 > h.264 In terms of compatibility: h.264 > h.265 > h.265

    Most devices at this point should have no issue playing h.265 video and if you're just playing it on a computer use VLC.
