What exactly is nyaa and how does it work? or Can someone explain what nyaa is used for? or

Thanks for all the replies, guys! Super helpful.

I tried nyaa is with qBittorrent and a VPN (went with Mullvad like someone suggested). Worked like a charm for the latest anime season.

Quick follow-up: Anyone know why some torrents have comments disabled? Is that a red flag?

Also, MangaDex seems way better for manga, so thanks for that tip!
