I've been on 1337x, ABC, torrentquest, eztvx, msearch, and pretty much all of the other sites on the megathread, both for "greatest treasures" (the general purpose section) and the movies & TV section specifically. Yet, the show that my wife and I want to watch is nowhere to be found in any of these. We're confused why, as it's not exactly an unpopular show.

Despite it not seeming to exist in a torrent format anywhere, among many other shows, it is forbidden both here and elsewhere to ask for help on finding a specific title. I was just hoping to learn the reasoning why. Is it just because the forum would be flooded with people asking for titles instead of taking the time to dig through the resources? What are people supposed to do when they do dig through the resources then?

If you use qbittorrent, they have a search function built in so you don't have to manually search every site. I have found many shows that were impossible to find on sites because they have odd names.

Is qbittorrent written in qt?

I'm a Gnome guy. I might put it on a spare laptop to try it out. I try to avoid contaminating my main system with qt code. 🤣

Bizarre behavior, you know people use Qt and GTK on windows and mac too, right?

I'm a bit odd, I guess. 🫠
