I've been using NZBPlanet for years. I guess they've recently changed their model so that, unless you pay, your account is deactivated within 24h.

Any other suggestions to find files on usenet?

Alternatively, how can I go about paying them anon? Go get a gift card credit card or something?

If it helps, mostly looking a shows or movies. Not games

Drunkenslug is still doing signups

Is drunkenslug free?

they have a free tier, but it's very limited. As an aside, most of my shit comes from drunkenslug because it's so great of a search website for usenet.

Recently paid for Nzbgeek. I find their UI better than the others when i search. Surely I can't comment on quantity of files but seems OK so far.

How often do you actually use the UI? Seems like most people just automate stuff with *arr apps at least for movies/tv shows

I haven't reached that point yet (automation) and not sure will ever do. So for now this is the only way for me 🙂

Unfortunately, the invite-only indexers tend to be the best. You won’t find anything usable with any kind of automation unless you’re willing to pay. I’ve always paid with crypto.

Buying crypto: Another leap to make! lol At least, do so anonymously
