killamch89 Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Whether it's for news, entertainment, socializing, or learning, what websites do you find yourself visiting daily? Are there any hidden gems or niche sites that you think more people should know about? I’ll start: I frequently check Reddit, YouTube, VGR and some tech and gaming sites. What about you?

The Blackangel Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 YouTube, VGR (obviously), Craigslist, dark web, random forums, spot on metals (silver, copper, etc), and a few astronomy sites to name a few. I also check my own site as I build it. Making sure links work, and that I have things scripted right prior to taking it live. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't really been on the Dark Web in recent months and the last time I was there, I didn't find anything good like the time I stumbled upon a hacker trying to sell a file containing every piece of info for a country's Department Of Finance.

Cpvr Posted October 14 Share Posted October 14 I visit reddit a lot, Facebook, my own website, Tiktok and a few other forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all honesty, I spend more time on the dark web than I do on the surface web. I’ve found several things down there that I would rather not have, but I’ve also found things that I easily resonate with. If you know how to use onion, have the right browser, a little bit of hacking skills, and can find a gateway, there’s nothing you can’t find down there.

Personally, I use Tails so that my snooping around the dark web cannot be traced. Tails + VPN + TOR = mostly anonymous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never browsed the dark web, I've watched videos of people talking about the most bizarre content they found on the dark web. As for the websites I tend to frequent often, they are Forum Promotion, Admin-Junkies, Sonic Retro, and Youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 I use Windows, because I use a computer, instead of a Mac. To clarify, that’s like comparing a truck and a motorcycle. Yeah they do the same basic thing, but are wildly different. As for getting on the DW, you have to find the things already mentioned. You definitely need TOR, and have to know how to use onion. When you find an open gateway, you can surf it all you want. Just make sure you don’t have any special pics, like those of your family and friends on your computer. Also make sure you either cover your webcam or, if you’re like me and use a TV for your monitor, unplug your webcam. People on the DW can see you through your camera and make it look to you as if it’s off. If you have any pictures of friends, family, and even a house, they can easily find you. They can use your cam to watch you even when you’re not using your computer. If you do anything you wouldn’t want others seeing (such as masturbate) they can record that and then blackmail you. The dark web is extremely dangerous if you don’t know what the hell you’re doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's disabled by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 (edited) The only microphone my computer ever gets access to is my headset. But typically, if the headset is in use, it’s plugged into my PS5 controller while I’m recording a video.
