Sorry in advance to the mods, I'm very much not used to posting anything beyond a comment so I hope this is fine.
Inquiring minds wish to know: What websites do you use to download games from ( off f95).
I've used Mega for almost any downloads I can since I've first come to this place. I've always found it to be a very safe and reliable file hosting site, I know many have had complaints about it from poor download speeds to accounts getting deleted for pirated content. For a while now I've noticed that a lot of posters have cut back a lot on using Mega and I find myself in a difficult position.
I used to use Nopy as a backup source when it was still around but now I'm having to use Workupload, but I get terrible speeds from it (like 10kb slow), and even it seems to be a bit niche.
So I would just like to ask anyone who would be willing to listen. What websites do you use? Why? I would ideally like to find at least one other website I can use to download games from, much preferably one that doesn't require a strong adblock or av to prevent getting infected or something.
If you're just an average user like me, what do you like to use? Or if you're an uploader, how and why do you choose the ones you do?
I'm not expecting a full tier list breakdown of all the sites (though I would enjoy that), I'm just curious what other people are doing.
Thank you!
Update on this, Gofile seems to be the go to for a lot of people. I gave Gofile a test and downloaded 10 things ranging from 100 MB to 2 GB. It was definitely faster than Workupload and I had no issues until unfortunately on the tenth download I was attempted to be connected to a malware website through the ads on Gofile's website.
Thankfully my av which is also my adblock prevented this from happening, but it was still a bit disheartening to see. I might try to see what I can do about this but being a naturally more anxious person it leaves be a bit wary.
