RARBG has shut down today. If you go to their website, you will be presented with the following message:

Hello guys, We would like to inform you that we have decided to shut down our site. The past 2 years have been very difficult for us - some of the people in our team died due to covid complications, others still suffer the side effects of it - not being able to work at all.

Some are also fighting the war in Europe - ON BOTH SIDES. Also, the power price increase in data centers in Europe hit us pretty hard. Inflation makes our daily expenses impossible to bare. Therefore we can no longer run this site without massive expenses that we can no longer cover out of pocket. After an unanimous vote we've decided that we can no longer do it.

We are sorry :( Bye

RARBG was one of the biggest public trackers that published Scene releases directly. It was one of the most trusted ones around, and aside from games they published lots of 4k movies. AFAIK 1337x is the other one left that's as big, though it's more unsafe in the software category and in general because they allow sign-ups.
