Doesn't usenet cost money? Why should i pay for something that public trackers does almost ass well?
I though the same too, but realized that it is easier than looking for torrents with seeders. I used to pay more for netflix than what I currently pay for Usenet. Torrenting these days isn't the same as years ago, many public torrent sites closed. I selfhost a server that basically does everything for me I only need to pick the show to download. You can try usenet for free, usenet.farm offer a 10 GB block to trial Usenet, also the indexer NZBGeek offer a trial if I am not wrong.
Don't you need an indexer and some other service too. I've got a server too, and to be honest, I've noticed the decline. But right now, even 15 dollars a month is a bit much for me.
NZBGeek an indexer offer a trial and Usenet farm offer a 10 GB trial if you want to test it. If you want usenet to get it you look for deals. You got two ways for usenet either ultimate or block (basically prepaid you pay for data and they don't expire you get them forever)
Block 6 TB for €15 (2800+ retention ) : https://bulknews.eu/en/%C2%A0 and use the code bf241.
NZBGeek an indexer costs $12 a year they also offer deals throughout unfortunately black Friday is over so no deals now.
If you got this you get a total of $27.62 for the year which is $2.3 per month.
Of course if you are comfortable with torrent just stay on torrent and maybe use IRC for anything you can't find a torrent for.
