I was in the same circumstances when I started. But then I asked around which helped me properly configure it.

working on my end

You can find plenty of versions on Demonoid https://www.dnoid.to/. I’ve used them on bare metal and on virtualization.

I just checked my DNS blocked list. Topaz software do download their models from their repositories, but I haven’t come across any issues. About safety, well, its upto your threat model.

Privacy focused frontend of YouTube

We got freetube too, you can always play on mpv

Then, Proton it is

Mullvad or Proton

Well ofcourse. WhatsApp works on a propriatary network where they store all your chats

KVM would be a safe way to test your pirated software. But it downgrades the performance.

XMPP? It works.

WhatsApp was build upon XMPP protocol. You can look into XMPP clients.

Besides that WhatsApp is not the way to communicate anyway. Normies use it because it is put up on their face and considered to be widely acceptable among them, while rhey don’t understand how privacy invading it is.

Technically NFT, a token is linked/owned by a wallet address. Which you cannot pirate/dublicate.

But in case of nft images, those tokens are linked to an image on ipfs through dapps, which you can download. But there is legal uncertainty about these images.

Denuvo games performed worse than the cracked version, FYI.

The only way to access clearnet through i2p is exitproxy.

The plugin “I2P Helper” states

Provides connectivity via the I2P network. Supports downloading via the anonymous I2P network. This includes DHT support for decentralised tracking.

The plugin allows to use I2P on biglyBT.

EDIT: Rather use Tor.

You can try out nextDNS. It has a list of blockers and you can track and block what request are being made by your phone.

Additionally, DNS-crypt proxy can be a good alternative too.

What kind of question is this fool?

I started using it on a daily bases since I switched to Linux. The distro I use as daily driver and other large projects have their support team on IRC.

It is much much better than posting on forums. You get instant response.

This is quite thought provoking. I never thought in this manner.

Don’t bother using collection. When I made one for personal use, the fucker downloaded some outdated version of the mod. I started using my download history to keep in check what I’ve downloaded and used vortex to handle the installation. Keeping bookmarks would be a better option.

In general, simply dropping the mods in the correct location installs the mod, but few mods (like in case of Cyberpunk 2077, Redmods) get compiled to show up as game files, which might complicated the proceduce but I think its possible.

I don’t know what you mean by downloading one by one. Nexus does lets you download multiple mods at a time when done manually. When installing mods with Vortex, it downloads it, installs it, verifies it and looks for the next in the queue.

But if you are still keen to use more bandwidth, perhaps try using tor, see if Nexus allows it? I haven’t checked on my end since I never really downloaded huge mods.

IIRC, Vortex can install manually downloaded mod files.

Note that mods are not piracy. Developers make toolkits to extend the longevity of the game.

Say what? How?
