Hi,

Sorry if this has been posted before but I’m looking at trying Usenet instead of torrents.

I’ve done some Googling and honestly, it’s a little overwhelming knowing what Usenet provider to use, where to get quality indexers and which download client would be the best.

If anyone has any resources or advice to help me sail the Usenet seas I would be eternally grateful!

    I switched in the fall, black Friday deals on account and several indexers. Looks like it’s gonna be just at $100ish per year. After configuring an arr ecosystem with overseer handling all user interaction and automation, I don’t think I’ll ever go back. Totally worth the price imho

      That’s what I’ve done. The arr suite is pretty damn convenient. Last time I did this I had to manually go fetch everything myself.

      Keeping my eyes peeled for deals and things but may have to bite the bullet and just pay for one to at least try it out
