Ah poo poo, it’s my primary too. Good retention even if the %age of new releases had slipped compared to other sites. Ugh now I’m gonna have to touch some kind of filthy cryptoshit to upgrade one of my free accounts.

That's fine dognzb has you buying a t-shirt (or not really buying one). I'm starting to think credit card processors don't like indexers.

I bought the dognzb t-shirt and it was all fine even if it felt sketchy as gently caress. They have been having pretty immense server issues the last few months and have been kinda hit and miss during that, but they took it down and upgraded their poo poo or something a few weeks ago and it has been working perfectly since then. I was kinda ready to throw a pissfit about dog up until that point, but right now at least it seems pretty solid.

A lot of major releases are obfuscated nowadays which makes things more difficult. See https://nzedb.github.io/ and http://www.newznab.com/

It’s been a long time but maintaining the system was not fun. It looks like someone made a docker image so maybe it’s not too bad now getting it running.

It really is amazing how good the site was being free and all. Just poking around the sites that aren't closed to new registrations right now and they all seem poo poo in comparison. I hope it is just an april fools joke, but i really doubt it. Even if it is, it's a wake-up call to have an alternative of some sort. It's almost the only one i've used for 10 years because it just worked.

Same. I took .org for granted. Out of the other sites I've tried, DrunkenSlug seems the best of the bunch but perhaps that's not saying much. I don't have an account at Omg. Is that better?

I've always kept 4-5 indexers in rotation for this reason but yeah, I've been on .org for like 10 years and definitely going to miss it. Rock solid and I don't think I've ever had a fake or etc, curation was perfect.

As someone that never got into this mythical indexer I can tell you the other 5 that are around are just as good and you should probably diversify anyway.

Thermopyle posted:If you never got into it, how do you know those others are just as good? There are other discussion groups about indexers out there with very vocal people. But I get it, according to hydra I pull from one indexer more than the other 4. I routinely make sure the other ones are active though so they don't get purged. Maybe keep one as a sub and the rest free accounts if you'd like to play it "safe" I'd also suggest going german with it too as another avenue as those indexers usually have some unique content and almost everything is DL (make sure you have your media player always default to the english track if you'd like to avoid confusing the hell out of friends and family though) e: I'm not going to answer any pms about clarifying or linking, all of these places have a fight club rule in place for a good reason.

Nothing pleases me more then the communities attitude of "well you should get x" "No I WILL NOT HELP YOU OR TELL YOU WHAT X IS WHAT ARE YOU? CRAZY?". I think I may need more indexers some of my more obscure stuff isn't being found.

R/usenet is a pretty good resources. I've seen nzb geek, drunken slug recommended often. Those are usually open or open a couple of times during the year. OMG is usually considered to be quite good if you can get in.

EC posted:I know people have run here have run their own newznab server, is it worth it to avoid messing with all these random rear end indexers? I still run my own. Once I got it running (which was a hassle), it's been fairly hands-off. Pretty much all of my other indexers get way more hits from hydra. I guess this is because most indexers have their own custom regexes and code to catch more stuff. I keep it running just for diversification purposes. I don't keep it running to avoid messing with other indexers...mainly because there isn't really any "messing around". I just add them to hydra when I sign up and then never think about them again.

Wait you don't know the name of it already? Man what the gently caress are you doing here get out! I'm trying to help you but you clearly need more experience to get my cryptic paranoid hinting. No I won't tell you over private message, you might be setting me up to lose my indexer account! It doesn't matter much just makes the whole experience more hostile towards new users/people who don't follow the community closely.

I'll figure out which indexer i like and probably pay for that one, but i'm not touching bitcoin or any of that poo poo. i'll go with the number one choice that offers something other than cryptocurrency.

I really do recommend nzbgeek. My only gripe with them is that the API is often fairly slow, but since it's automated I don't give a poo poo. I got onto nzb.cat when they were offering lifetime VIP, so I also keep that around. I would set up a crawler to refresh https://nzb.cat/invites periodically. Also as a reminder, http://6box.me/ is still open and free. Greatest Living Man fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Apr 2, 2019 |
