ArmSpaghetti I have a good portion (~250, ~80GB) of the JoiDB uploads saved on a NAS. I haven't categorized or sorted or deduplicated them but theres a pretty good amount and I'm sure you would be missing at least some of them. If you'd like I could create a torrent with all the stuff I have. Also when you do end up distributing the content, it would be ideal if you could also make a torrent (even though they can't be updated easily) since MEGA and similar services tend to actually respect DMCAs.
joiDB? that doesn't sound familiar ngl unless its a acronym but sure a torrent sounds fine.
and when i distribute yea i can make a one time "legacy" torrent but its not something im gonna keep doing regularly
im running a pyscript that will auto upload and maintain free mega accounts from the hard drive i dedicated to this, its pretty much fully automated i just need to add new videos to the respective folders as people contribute and the script handles the rest.
so its gonna be mostly mega for now but if the mega accounts get striked thats what the script is for, it will automatically create a new account and start uploading the database to it even if im not around when it happens, and then i just update to the new link on here and we are back online. this is the system im gonna be using going forward until a better hosting alternative comes along or someone sends me a bunkr invite code, which is the ideal scenario, i dont want to use someone else's account becuase that backfired last time but ideally bunkr would be the best platform to host the database on. either way, i will have all the currently active bunkr links listed in the new thread as well under a "legacy" section so even during mega downtime people will likely be able to hit up the bunkr links and find what they need even if its messy and hard to navigate.
torrents arent a good idea long term either becuase I'm only on page 30 of 74 and the database is already 177gb, this is a1TB hard drive so we are fine on space, but its just a massive amount of data. (hentirella and sweetyjoi atm are the main culprits with their massive file sizes, also soxxie from just pure video spam bloat)
