I've had nzbgeek for years.

I only use drunkenslug and AnimeTosho (and rarely SceneNZBs for German stuff)

I'm getting errors

It would help if you shared what errors you're getting.

I rarely have issues, but occasionally I see errors like these:

All rss-capable indexers are temporarily unavailable due to recent indexer errors	
Indexers unavailable due to failures: The Pirate Bay (Prowlarr)	
All search-capable indexers are temporarily unavailable due to recent indexer errors	
Indexers unavailable due to failures for more than 6 hours: RuTracker.RU (Prowlarr)

Digging into the logs

Warn|Torznab|API Request Limit reached for The Pirate Bay (Prowlarr). Disabled for 00:00:59
|Warn|Torznab|API Request Limit reached for RuTracker.RU (Prowlarr). Disabled for 00:00:58

I set the query and grab limit to 10 an hour for those two indexers, based on the advice in the other thread

You will always get errors at some point. You could just perform simple searches until you find one that works for you.

Drunkenslug and nzbgeek are my gotos. Technically you can run your own as well but it’s a PITA honestly.
