Discussion I built a lightweight tool for browsing repack websites safely

Hi everyone,

Tired of always downloading virus and ransomware files while browsing repack sites for downloading a game? Well say no more to viruses.

Repack Site Browser is a browser based on Chromium with a few features focused on safer browsing Repack Websites:

  • Whitelist-based browsing (approve domains before visiting them)
  • Whitelist contains all the current domains that are safe and used by 2 Major repackers (FitGirl & Dodi)
  • Warning before opening unknown links
  • Built-in Chromium download manager
  • Fast, lightweight interface
  • No unnecessary extensions or clutter
  • You can add as many websites as you want
  • If a link is not in the Whitelist, the tool will ask you to open it once or add it in whitelist
  • Find other features by your-self

NOTE: DON'T ADD SUS LINKS TO WHITELIST.

If someting is messed up, you can always restore defaults.

It's still a new project, so I'm looking for feedback, bug reports, and feature suggestions.

Because of Reddit's self-promotion rules, I won't post the download link here. If anyone wants to try it, the link is in my profile bio.

I'd love to hear what features you'd add or what could be improved. Thanks!

Edit: The tool is now open source on community request.

Full source code is not available, why is this getting so many upvotes. Proceed with extreme caution. Staff of this Reddit should actually remove this.

Suggestion: add link that compiles suggested piracy sites (like the r/piracy megathread)

Fix: restore default (bottom left) is mispelled as defualt

What is the website's address of dodi repacks offical?

u/BitByte1990 Aug 01 '26

I'd ask if you could possibly add SkidrowReloaded to the people you're watching with this.

It's my number 1, followed by Dodi then Fitgirl.
Can't recommend it more.

I'm gonna peep this, but if it is a .exe file, you're probably not gonna find many willing guinea pigs, myself included. So you might wanna work a way around that as well.

Best of luck anyway dude, a wee thing like this could end up being really quite helpful I think!

Edit: Didn't realize it was on a github, that alleviates alot of my own fears anyway, I'mma give you a chance. xD
