Audiobooks

it's the easiest and most generous tracker so I suggest going with them.

How does one go about getting invites to private trackers? I have yet to figure it out. The advice generally given is "know somebody" but I don't so...

I can't either! I got bit by the audiobook big a few months ago and jumped into MAM and it's been fantastic! Half the books are looked behind their VIP section, but it's super easy to get that status of your seed consistently. I was given literally 1000s of their bonus points from other members just for hanging around their forums for a few post. Bought my VIP status with the bonus points, and now I log in every month or so and convert my points to top of my VIP status and then dump the rest into my Ratio

There is some startup lag with that site. The whole VIP/freeleach/wedge system is a bit convoluted, but grabbing some popular free torrents and keeping them seeded will get you going in no time. It is easily the best community I've seen on a torrent site and those restrictions are probably a big reason why.

How you get an invite to it?

Might as well not have a discussion page at all! Everything here is contained in Google so we can just search for any of our questions.

My brother/sister/person, I understand the frustration but let's not be hostile out here. Honestly I don't know that every lemmy app has a good intuitive search function inside of a community, so let's give them the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes asking and making the post is faster than intuitively figuring out how everything here works.

TIL there is a search function for Lemmy.

I import them into the native books app and it’s good enough that I haven’t had a reason to look elsewhere. You might need to sync with a Mac for this to be an option though—I’m not sure if it can be done without the accompanying MacOS books app.
