Und? Was sagt die Summe des Wetters so?

In the baking? This literally came up the second this situation arose. People jumped from “This upload has a miner” via “People got banned for reporting it” to “The proceeds from the miner go directly to the admins” within one single post. And all most people had to say was “Well, where do I go now?”.

EDIT: Looks like I found a discord that has what you are looking for. Report back if it worked for you! https://discord.gg/FtWVdRGg

I´m wondering about that as well. I know that you can in fact install apk files on it, so by my estimation, if yut get a hold of a cracked apk of a pico game, you´d be set.

There´s a inbuilt store where you buy and download them. It´s basically android under the hood, you can even install regular android apps via the apk. So if there were pico game apks out there, I´d say that´s all it would take.

“Wegen Heizungsgesetzt” ist das neue “wegen Krieg”, was das neue “wegen Corona” war, was wiederum das neue “wegen Flüchtlinge” war. Kausalzusammenhang nicht existent aber es macht den Leuten Angst und das bringt Umsatz.

Indeed, looks like that´s correct. Just to test it, I fired up Q on my own machine, with Nord connected to a swiss server, and while I have no restrictions in place, there´s almost no upload.

Allow me to ask one further question: If I had a VPN which supported port forwarding, how would I go about to usilise that for torrenting? I know port forwarding from my internet router, where I can forward an external port directly to a specific internal IP. Is that similar?

Nord does do a lot of sponsoring, that´s right. But that doesn´t make it a bad service automatically. If I want to believe that comparison table I mentioned, Nord might even be a pretty good service, so maybe they “need” this big marketing to rake in enough users to make it profitable and affordable.

About that port forwarding though, what´s the deal with that? I´m asking because I lack the tech background here. You say, it´s crucial for torrenting. And obviously, many look for alternatives to mullvad because they don´t offer it any more. Others though say they don´t really need port forwarding.

So you are saying, if I would torrent something while using Nord, there would be no upload / seeding happening at all? I use a seedbox, so I don´t know. In the seedbox though, I always keep the files up. I have an overall ratio of over 13, so I´m very much in favor of seeding.
