Looking around for trackers that do stl files and/or other stuff for 3d printing. Specifically I’m hoping for rpg minis and the like but if I can find a tracker that does printable objects, I’m happy to help start a mini community.

I think what you’re asking for (a big repository of pirated STLs) doesn’t exist because it isn’t really necessary or desirable.
There are a LOT of free models out there. Thingiverse, Printables, Thangs, etc. You really don’t need to buy models if you don’t want to.
Most of the owners of paid models are just random nerds, not the huge mega corporations that own movies and TV shows. And the printing community is very small and supportive, so the general sentiment is that if a model isn’t free, it’s probably worth paying for.
Not to be overly pedantic, but: your argument doesn’t hold water at all. Sites exactly as described do exist, therefore it is “really necessary or desirable”. While true that no one needs “to buy models if [they] don’t want to”, your second point confuses ethics with the facts of the topic at hand.
To wit, there are a number of trackers that specialize in exactly what OP is asking for and dozens more Telegram groups with even more granular focus between them (and that’s not even getting into newsgroups, etc.)
Please, share these numerous trackers with the class. What I said was “big central repositories” don’t exist because people aren’t really interested. A telegram group is not a big central repository, my dude.
Yeah “my dude”, I respond exceptionally well to juvenile condescension, especially when coupled with a whingy cry for a handout. I’m not condoning or promoting piracy here (that’s against the rules, innit?), so downvote all you want: my point still stands. Hell, I’ll even give your lazy ass a hint: it rhymes with “materialize”. Now, kindly fuck off, kiddo. 😘
tl;dr: “big, central repositories” do exist, you’re just too shit at life to find them, and speaking on behalf of all humankind in this is a patently stupid stance. You have no clue what “people” want, and using it to prop up your baseless argument is tedious at best. Bye, Felicia.
No, obviously not.
LMAO I made the child mad. And yet he still only (sort of) gave me a single example that I’m sure he came up with after furiously googling “stl torrent tracker 2023”
So much for all those huge, popular STL trackers that I’m sure definitely exist… Maybe they’re on the dark web and we’re all just too stupid to find them.
Before flaming you should check which community you’re posting to.
Give link or cry.
Stfu pls and ty
