I'm not sure about anything, but the client, as I've been usenetting without thinking much about stuff for almost a decade now.
Last, but not least: sabnzbd is the gold standard for clients. Runs on everything: from a raspberry pi to your Desktop PC.
Do you tunnel your usage through a VPN?
Nope. Usenet is quite safe legally, afaik, since you're not uploading/seeding anything. IANAL, though.
Most Usenet providers offer secure connections so I don't know if it's necessary, but I use a VPN.
I do. Just in case.
Ironically through my seedbox provider :p
Thank you! I'll give that stuff a look!
You may also want to look into NZBget (download client) and nzb360 for mobile management if you happen to be an Android user -- or LunaSea either way.
I think it’s 80 for lifetime now, 12 for a year
You never know how long these sites are able to stay up in the future, but it's still way less than what I've payed on patreon over time.
I mean, compared to streaming, 80 for even a year is a bargain lmao
Lol, true. Although that doesn't include the provider fees, etc.
