Back after a decade (RIP Giganews lol), often seeing failed downloads now when historically that was not the case. I am seeing that people now alternate between providers. I am running Eweka which seems to be great aside from the entities that make certain articles not work.. What provider are folks using when Eweka cannot download it but a block plan can, and why does that work? I tried reading through a few posts, but still lost. TIA!
