Usenet is unmoderated. Once you post it, it sticks forever. We could probably get one of the independent providers to give free access to a new newsgroup. Anyone have any thoughts?

I’ve used Usenet for my content needs for years because it’s so fast and risk free. I think we could also use it for our community discussions.

I have used both and I don't disagree with you, but I want to say it's worth noting that torrents also work fine with Sonarr and Radarr!

Good point - I did find torrents a lot more fiddly to set up though.

Agreed again haha, it was way more fiddly (but also more free!)

These days I'm just using Stremio for my media though, with add-ons it's glorious

Free is always the best price! I've been using a Sonarr/SABnzbd/Emby setup on my home built NAS (unRAID) for about 7 years now. Until recently I had about 9.5TB of shows but then got ransomwared :(. Got about 4 of it back now and counting!
