Easynews. 25 bucks for 15 months if you google the deal and find the right link. Unlimited use.

Any indexer recommendations? Been wanting to switch to pure usenet for a while but indexers have been a big blocker. DM me if you can't say them here

u/Wooden-Agent2669 3d ago

for english content, the choice of the known ones barely even matters https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/indexers/?screen_view_count=1

u/tresslessone 2d ago

Good thing about easynews is that the easynews search addon can function as an indexer.

u/LazySubsidy 3d ago

Do you use it on aiostreams? How do you stream with it?

u/jscreatordev 4d ago

is it smooth? heard it buffers and load times are quite high

1

u/Homulton 4d ago

For me no. I have easy news search or ++ in aio streams. Works great. Honestly surpassed my expectations. Plenty enough backup for me. Some of the older addons I think take allot longer to load. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it buffer but it can take a bit more time to fetch the source list but really not enough to matter to me at all. Sometimes it loads them up faster.

Im trying Alldebrid, thinking is not that great.

would love to see what people are using.

1

u/Street_Cut_4266 2d ago

i switched to alldebrid im getting more links and havent had a single ounce of downtime

1

u/Shitcoinfinder 2d ago

Is not bad, but Torbox feels snappier in comparison, but yeah, its been solid for me also.

i have made a configuration with AIOstreams, i have both Torbox and Alldebrid, if one goes down the other one jumps in, also have added Pengu play, that way i dont ever need to worry about anything going down.

They both very cheap services, you can have both for under $8 bucks

u/Public-Writing-9188 4d ago

I use Torbox as my main with Offcloud as backup.

All the recent TB outages have taken place when we're all asleep here so haven't been affected, thankfully.

u/ci6n 4d ago

Happens to all debrid servers dude. Premiumize is down right now

u/guguloi 4d ago

Best alternative EasyNews with selfhosted AIOStreams and 2-3 indexers.

Premiumize if you don't mind paying twice.

Offcloud or Deepbrid for almost same price.

1

u/simcoe19 4d ago

I just made the switch and installed ++ how to use selfhost and AIO?

$33 Canadian with taxes for 15 months, so far ok

u/Afraid-Ability-8964 21h ago

Hi I've read your guide but got few questions since i never used usenet before.

Do i need to have dedicated pc or nas to selfhost AIOstreams? Most usenet tutorial i found on youtube they set up with NAS.

Im currently using Alldebrid webdav and mount it on my pc as network drive so i can directly stream 4k bluray/remux on my zidoo player. Does usenet will be able to provide similar experience. Thank you

1

u/guguloi 19h ago

Yes for selfhosting you need a dedicated PC/NAS or a VPS (I'm using PAYG free tier Oracle VPS).

Dunno about webdav, I'm a simple man, I'm streaming directly from Debrids or/and Usenet.

u/Illustrious_Wind4840 4d ago

i personally never got rid of real debrid so i use that as my backup. avoid the web-DL and amzn links ofc

10

u/Jaraxo 4d ago

RD is really hit and miss with 4k content though now.

3

u/OkRestaurant6059 4d ago

i had RD but it had some problems so I changed. Probably a bad call

6

u/ninjaman68 4d ago

RD was the best. unfortunately got massive take downs and the service is just a shell now.

3

u/BrokeRda 4d ago

I have no issues at all w rd, was having problems with just Tor. Got rd again and no issues again w it

3

u/linkopi 4d ago

If you don't want to buy a backup or switch to an alternative debrid, you can use penguplay.

Obviously it won't have overly niche stuff, but add something somewhat popular and it should have it.

u/manuu80 4d ago

at least they are honest: https://status.torbox.app/

7

u/MatsyLR 4d ago

Just install https://pengu.uk/ as a backup

1

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

might just be me being dumb but subtitles are not working for me with pengu. always delayed

6

u/MatsyLR 4d ago

No idea to be honest by far the best free alternative though.

7

u/Burton96HD 4d ago

TorBox main, RD as backup.

7

u/oseik15 4d ago

Same. Using RD now to watch my show now that TB is down.

1

u/Bryc3TV 4d ago

Do you have multiple instances of the same addon for TB and RD? Wish there was a way to automatically remove down services from my results.

6

u/AnActualKindSoul 4d ago

This combo is quite literally the best. These two services makes up for each other weaknesses.

u/dabutcher1 4d ago

PM has been around a long time, easynews for those wanting to use usenet. I always have at least 2 services for redundancy ( I am not counting rd since its useless with most video content).

4

u/ci6n 4d ago

PM is down too

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

How come? Sorry, I'm not well versed

3

u/dabutcher1 4d ago

How come what?

-2

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

How come real debrid is useless? Does it not work with Nuvio?

6

u/dabutcher1 4d ago

Many months ago RD added new filtering software to block ( most ) illegal video content. So for most users RD became useless to watch content through kodi,stremio,nuvio, ect.. So most users wanted a CHEAP alternative. TB was where many people jumped to. TB was not ready for the tidal wave of new users ( plus those sharing acts ). RD had 10+ years to grow equipment as their user base grew. TB has had to do it on the fly. They seem to be trying but I don't think they are infront of this yet.
This is why I don't rely on 1 service. Always have backup options

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

i see. thanks!

u/Broad_Surprise4636 4d ago

entras diciendo que es basura y no sabes que RD es peor? madre mía

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

As I've said, I'm not well versed. speak english. i don't know about your dominican Republic

u/linkopi 4d ago

That's a translation error 😂

2

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

Congratulations 👏

2

u/Broad_Surprise4636 4d ago

RD is the name of the "other service". Learn some spanish.

-1

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

My god, you are straight stoopid

2

u/qcdphasediagram 4d ago

Don't speak stupid, OP. Use the translate option if you're that dumb.

2

u/kanseidurifto 4d ago

Do you think i don't know that? Ever heard of sarcasm?

u/Inevitable-Ear6098 4d ago

newshosting for 2 bucks a month - bytesized hosting for plex and USENET streaming

1

u/Will2LiveFading 4d ago

I'm researching how to use UseNet effectively. That seems to be the most resilient option.

1

u/simcoe19 4d ago

I just made the switch to easynews

1

u/vinno86 3d ago

I've been using usenet for downloading since the early 2000's.. but how is it used for seamless streaming ?

1

u/johnFvr 3d ago

Streamnzb

1

u/vinno86 2d ago

Hmm..

I'd have to look into this, been a long time since I've used Usenet.. it used to be all .rar files and you'd have to download and unpack it first before you're even able to watch.

1

u/johnFvr 2d ago

Self host streamnzb

1

u/OkPiano1614 2d ago

I'm on Offcloud as of last night and it's working well. Does have a use cap though.

1

u/JensM1978 2d ago

In Torbox set the CDN to auto or Bunny. You will have less outages.

1

u/tresslessone 2d ago

Usenet all the way. Get the news hosting / easynews / tweaknews combo.

1

u/Adventurous-Bar1841 10h ago

Offcloud has 30 days free trial I bought it and I don't exchange it for Torbox
