Is there a good source of mac software?
it just seems like the goto of tpb is kind of feeling abandoned as a source of content at times and wondering if there's anything new out there I should look for to get my hands on something like an apple silicon version of Sketchup.
Cmacked but you’re going to have to deal with lots of ads and direct downloading
There is uBlock Origin and FilterStalker for these Ads ;)..for DDL I found Real-Debrid is an excellent investment.
What about the actual files there – risk of malware/viruses?
I’ve not gotten one. I think macOS is less prone to viruses than Windows, but there’s always a risk.
It seems all the software versions I'm looking for have dead or paywalled links. The only thing worse than paying full price is paying for cracked software that might be riddled with backdoors and not have a warranty or anything.

Damn that would be nice to join but it requires an invite
What do you think that they’re looking for for the application to join?
It’s a private tracker. They want proof that you’re a good standing member of some other private tracker. So they’d want to see that you seed and have a good ratio.
They have an IRC chat. If you had skill cracking apps or something they might let you in that way.
I miss the days of oink and waffles but I don't have any of proofs from them these days since the fire.
