Adds direct-download buttons and links for Pixeldrain files using an alternate proxy — inspired by 'Pixeldrain Download Bypass' by hhoneeyy and MegaLime0
< Feedback on Pixeldrain DL Bypass
I appreciate your comment. I'm not working on a new method at the moment. I tried using various cloud providers, but unfortunately most of them are blocked, and others have strict data limits. Because of that, I don’t think proxying the requests is possible for now.
Regarding the bots, that could indeed be the case. There are also people downloading games hosted on Pixeldrain, so large file downloads are unavoidable.
Thanks for the quick reply. Can you state the cloud provider where you initially hosted the "pd-pass.hdyzen.xyz" proxy? I'm currently in the process of making a proxy myself and a strict data limit wouldn't matter because it's only for personal use.
Actually, pd-pass.hdyzen.xyz (Cloudflare Workers) was just an entry point that called other proxies from different providers (Supabase functions, Render, Deno Deploy...). I don’t know how much data you plan to use per month, but you could try Deno Deploy and/or Supabase Edge Functions. Using multiple cloud providers might help increase the limits, depending on how much outbound data you consume from Pixeldrain.
To be honest, if you use more than 25 GB, I believe it’s more worth it to get a prepaid plan on pixeldrain.com. With €1 you can use 1 TB, but it’s up to you. Either way, thanks for the feedback.
Actually, I think the 25 GB limit I mentioned is quite low, but if you use Deno Deploy and verify your account with a credit card or bank account, you will have an output limit of 100 GiB. So, if you download more than 115 GB on pixeldrain.com, I would consider paying for a plan, otherwise, you could just use Deno Deploy without any problems, since it's only for your use.
Thanks for the detailed replies. A limit of 100GB is more than enough for my use case but do you happen to know if the limit is imposed as a monthly limit or is that a 'pay as you use' type maximum amount before they charge my credit card after exceeding the limit.
No problem. When the limit is exceeded, services are suspended. Here is a screenshot showing the new limits when verifying the account:
The script was amazing while it lasted. Are you working on a new method to combat the heavy number of requests? Im guessing that the abnormal amount of traffic could be automated requests from bots.
