If one wanted to get into Usenet, where would they begin?

(I definitely do not have a Jellyfin server and entirely too much empty storage)

Well if a person wanted to use Usenet to download news and totally nothing else, they would need two things - a Usenet provider and an indexer. Both cost an annual fee, but it’s less than $100.

Newshosting for Usenet access, this gets configured in nzbget or sabnzbd as a news server. Then NZBGeek gets configured in Sonarr and Radarr as an indexer.

Enjoy your glorious news!

I definitely wouldn't recommend astraweb and drunkenslug. They barely have any news.

Remember when ISPs provided Usenet access as standard fare?

My, how times have changed.

Do people not use a VPN with Usenet at all? I have one for torrents to get my Linux ISOs but I just assumed I should also use one to get my news from Usenet.

[-] Skyline969@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Nope! The reason you need a VPN for torrents is because you’re also sharing the content. That’s how you’re tracked, mainly. Someone downloads a piece of your Linux ISO, they know you’ve got it.

Use SSL with Usenet and your traffic is encrypted. Good to go.

Torrents are better than usenet, change my mind. Especially when downloading older content

[-] nik282000@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago

So many old shows and movies with a single seed hosting at 80kb/s.

[-] Player2@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 years ago

With your help, that can change into double seed! 👍

[-] Auli@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

How old are we talking about? I've had better luck with Newsgroups. Download the file and it downloads full speed vs torrents.

As another comment has mentioned get yourself an indexer (geek is fine and cheap) setup sabnzb and follow this wiki

Oh you'll also need a provider and I've had good luck with newshosting (not affiliated) but there are cheaper options too.

I hope this helps you in your quest to fill your storage.

PS here's the jellyfin documentation

PPS get a VPN like Mullvad just to be safe.
