UNIT3D-Community-Edition VS Torrent-Tracker-Platforms

Oh, cool, thanks for the info! Nice that it's open source.

You should report this to the UNIT3D creator, /u/-HDVinnie-, via Github would be a good thing to do : https://github.com/HDInnovations/UNIT3D-Community-Edition

I don't think anything exactly like you want exists. The closest I can think of are private Bittorrent trackers. A popular open source implementation would be e.g. UNIT3D.

I did not want to attribute to malice what could just be ignorance or ineptitude. The only justifiable situation I can think of for limiting the characters is when working with legacy code. ReelFlix is based on the UNIT3D codebase which is regularly maintained. Your comment made me curious so I decided to dig into its code. It appears here that it offers two hashing algorithms for passwords: bcrypt and Argon2. So there's no real need of a character limit, and I wonder why they implemented it.

In that case, I would shop around different codebases before doing anything else (I’m a big Gazelle fan myself, but everyone I’ve ever worked with says learning PHP is a pain, which makes me a bit hesitant). HDVinnie has a good list here: https://github.com/HDVinnie/Torrent-Tracker-Platforms

https://github.com/HDVinnie/Torrent-Tracker-Platforms currently the easiest to deploy is UNIT3D,

Lazy or unskilled web administrators Most trackers use pre-made software. https://github.com/HDVinnie/Torrent-Tracker-Platforms

This project is for fun. Figured it would be a nice addition to my other three tracker related repos. https://github.com/HDVinnie/Private-Trackers-Spreadsheet https://github.com/HDVinnie/Torrent-Tracker-Platforms https://github.com/HDInnovations/UNIT3D-Community-Edition

"Not so good update. We couldn't get money into the account quick enough (only had 11 days) and lost the domain, I've filled out the form that's currently at the sites address but no response yet. because of the license for the sites code we can't change the domain without paying at templateshares.net but the staff are never there any more so that's never going to happen. the only other option is to migrate the site to a new code base (https://github.com/HDVinnie/Torrent-Tracker-Platforms) which I don't have the skill to do and R [name removed] doesn't have the time to do so we are stuck in a pretty bad spot right now."
