      reliable Usenet instance

      Honestly, I straight up don’t bother with Usenet. I’m not paying more than my internet+phone bill for it. I get by fine with just a couple of private torrent trackers.

      A tracker is a website which tracks torrent files, and makes them available for download. ThePirateBay and Nyaa are examples of public trackers. BTN and PTP are examples of private trackers, which require an account (and an invitation to make that account) in order to download .torrent files.

      The indexer is the little doohickey that sonarr/radarr use to find content on your tracker(s) or Usenet instance(s). You can use these with public trackers, but you’re more likely to have your ISP send you DMCA extortion letters that way.

      If you have access to a private tracker, any private tracker, you can plug that into sonarr and radarr with something like torznab or jackett.
