Hello, friend. I'm sun2snowboy.
You've found it! My little link pool. This small circle of aquamarine, mirrored here and there around the Internet. Swim off to oceans great and far, but always find your way back again.
First, let's talk equipment. For http links, you probably already have a web browser, like Mozilla Firefox. For magnet links and torrent files, you need a BitTorrent client, like uTorrent. Choose your own, or get those here:

https://www.utorrent.com/
There's a peer-to-peer web now, where hosting is free, capacity is unlimited, and censorship is impossible. For dat links, you need a peer-to-peer web browser, like Beaker:
For web search, I reccomend DuckDuckGo. For rar files, try 7-Zip. And for secure email and chat, try ProtonMail and Wickr:
https://duckduckgo.com/
https://www.7-zip.org/
https://protonmail.com/
https://wickr.com/
Oh and also, you need a computer. No, a phone or tablet won't cut it.
Here's where this page lives on the web, and the peer-to-peer web:

For finding images and gifs, search and click around tumblr. For videos, there's so much good stuff in YouTube and GayBoysTube:

Some sites that got all this started are BoyLinks for links, BoyTales for forums, and Nifty for stories. Fantastic sport photography is at ehm.cz.

And now for the frequently asked question: No, nothing here is illegal, and nothing ever will be.
Boys are beautiful. And as a boy, the process of discovering your own sexuality, by youself and with others, can be one of the most exciting and wonderful parts of being human.
In recent years, society has made big strides towards getting in step with the truth that gender and sexual desire are varied and complex. It's biology, after all, where nothing is simple.
Many places now in Europe and America, gay people can get married, kids feel safe enough to come out of the closet in middle school, and trans people can use the correct bathroom. But to bring those ideas forward, society had to push some other ideas even further back. It's almost felt like a trade: to accept some truths as newly acceptable, other truths must be separated and condemmed by all.
Boys are beautiful. But that idea still makes a lot of people uncomfortable, and that's enough to for these sites to get reported and deleted, repeatedly and unfairly.
So, we'll just keep putting them back up :)
Come back here soon, as I'm planning lots more. You can send me a message at sun2snowboy@protonmail.com. Have fun, and always remember: be nice, and be safe.
