Is MBAM better, or is microsoft defender enough if you download from trusted sources?

Do you consider Nyaa safe? (I'd like to get a visual novel or two that I haven't purchased on steam yet)

Regarding other games, I always used pirate bay and I've been fine, 10 years ago though. Are the website listed in the wiki generally safe?

Not really. They are safe, specially the ones marked with a goat sign.

Though that said, i HIGHLY recommend setting up the security tips mentioned at the top of the megathread. As a casual pirate, they've been more than enough for me.

do you mean this "Not so fast sailor! Do this first" suggestions, like using VPN and such? (witch is useless where I live, I never heard of any legal troubles tbh)
