Usually when a site goes down, a bunch of enterprising folks try to leverage its popularity for their own gain. So your "lazy copy paste cash grabs" is most likely. The honeypot theory doesn't make much sense.

yeah, very clickbaity. Did some more digging, seems they're all hosted on the same ip 45.154.253.150, an offshore proxy, https://proxy.is/. Just do a reverse lookup here: https://dnslytics.com/reverse-ip.
You'll see there are 18 such services lmao, including anonfiles. Most of them have dns with njalla, a company created by a TPB founder.
I guess this is legit, more like an homage to all those services, setup in a hydra manner. Almost brings a tear to my eye. Remember the hydra bay? Pepperidge farm remembers. :`(

I think that was the "honeypots" reference. But I don't see any good reason for users to take an interest in notorious names from the past, it would invite trouble.

Heya animetosho folk. I stumbled today on a network of filehosting sites that seem to be vaguely familiar for anyone who's been around the block. You can start here for instance https://openload.cc/ then check out their 'friends' which are all basically the same site, same api but with a coat of paint boiling down to ripping off a now closed titan filehosting site of yore.
Anyone has an idea about wtf is going on? From my tests they work reasonably well but not amazing. Are these honeypots by any chance or just a lazy copy paste cash grabs?

I've seen reference to Tibb and their bot a few times, but I have no idea who they are and couldn't really find anything about them. I'm just curious, what exactly did they do, was it another mirror like here at AT?
So your question is if there are any mirror sites of nyaa? You may check https://nyaatorrents.info/ That of course only works if the tracker would still be up. You can also check for the trackers, when you check any file uploaded here. Any plz try to make clear sentences. Like I would not know what you mean with "here". I mean do you want to speak with some of them here? Punctuation so official introduces a new sentence. etc.
Hello all. An update on my earlier enquiry yesteday. I've tried a few things on my end and I've managed to get RSS feeds to work again. The issue was a HTTPS issue on my end with my network settings. I appreciate the interim responses, which made me realise the issue might be me. Please keep up the good work here with this page. +1 support towards kissing admins consentually....
While waiting for someone who really knows (I don't use them), I think a number of people use the feeds but there aren't any others reporting problems yet.
Hello all. Awesome work with this website. I use the RSS2 feeds quite a bit but noticed mine haven't updated since 22nd Feb, despite there being new files available. Is this just me? Apologies if so.
