Hey yall, just for fun I had the idea of making our own community tier list for trackers. Lumping them all together regardless of category, just rating them on how well they do what they do.

Commit if you have any changes or additions and I will update!

    Orpheus is probably A-tier if it’s being compared to S-tier Redacted, but both are quite good now.

    Also, GGn has never changed its mission statement or quality but I feel like the rise of Fitgirl/DODI/KaOs, cs.rin, and Clean Steam File (CSF) ripping has really left them in the dust and failing to adapt. I wish GGn would start tracking sha256-matched clean source files and AIO delta updates so I can apply my own cracks to up-to-date versions of games. As is I barely ever use GGn anymore because the games they track are always out of date by nature of infrequent scene/P2P releases.

      Sounds like I’m also behind, as someone who only plays older games and they are always on there when I search haha. So you think it should be moved down?

      I’ll go ahead and place orpheus, thanks for contributing!

        I don’t think GGn should be moved down per se because they’ve done nothing wrong and they are high quality for what they aim to do, but I do wish they kept on the pulse of gaming piracy a bit more. I would also say compared to titans like BTN/PTP/RED, GGn’s catalog isn’t as meticulously filled out, so I would maybe vote for A-tier instead of S-tier. I would understand if others think S-tier though.
