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!
What are the advantages of usenets?
In Germany they provide relief from the constant fear your vpn might leak and you’ll receive mail.
Expensive mail.
Higher and better retention of old stuff.
It’s great, although a little unfair, and perhaps illegal in some draconian jurisdictions, to use nets while fishing
You’re downloading from servers not other people, so you don’t have to worry about the number of peers
