Replace Torrenting with Usenet (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

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!

Why replace torrents? Why not use both? It's a bonus if your usenet provider includes a VPN.

Good question, didn't really consider that if I'm honest. Could use the torrents as backup/secondary

One thing I love about usenet is that it's great if you're just looking for one episode, song, etc and don't want to download a whole collection.
