Have 4K TV show torrents entirely disappeared from public trackers? (lemm.ee)

I use a seedbox to run qBittorrent with Jackett, and have a bunch of sources on there. I know there are other methods, but that works for me and I'm comfortable with it.

Rarbg has been gone for about five months and it's harder and harder to find 4k TV rips. For current shows, sometimes you can get episodes as they air, but it's rare to see full seasons.

The tipping point was when I searched for a Netflix show from two weeks ago just now, with zero 4K results.

I've always hated private trackers since they're a pain in the ass, but is that the only option now? Do I need to look at a different method entirely? I've been torrenting since that existed, but if I need to do something else, let me know.

I don't expect to get torrent sites in any responses, but you can do that if you have any 😂

Man streaming services are even now making it hard to watch their content in 4k so yeah like, I've stopped expecting to see others ripping at that resolution, and will mostly only seek it out if it's something that deserves to be watched in 4k.

Babylon 5 is being redone, I dunno if it's in 4k though.
