They do have some "uniques", specially non-English content.

If you were curious, that's a good opportunity to try them out.

Also privacy: SSL downloads and only your Usenet provider knows what you download. Most say they don't log.

Please, with sugar on top: make this a plugin that can be integrated to qbittorrent or rtorrent.

Try to make your idea reach the seedboxes. This would be great for open-tracker seedboxes!

You can also use a socks5 server with container:gluetun and run qbt with 127.0.0.1 socks5. (not allowing it to connect to anything but that address in your firewall settings).

By the way you can do this with absolutely any socks5 supporting software (even browsers, ftp clients, etc).

Just set the firewall to allow the software executable to connect only to localhost/127.0.0.1 and you are done.

It's split tunnel under your control.

Hello Lemmy readers!

After one month gathering information about indexers I created this table and I thought It would be nice to make it a markdown and share it here.

The reason to make it was the inconsistency between multiple sources of information (review sites, reddit, hydra github, etc.) and the reality I found in every site. So this table represents the data I found inside the sites themselves between August and today (09/09/2023).

A further note is that I did not add other German sites because they needed invites that I don't have so I couldn't get any info from them (and they are quite local). I also didn't add a French one because it was trying to web-mine.

As the title says, only sites with APIs able to be added to *ARRs are used for this table (excepting the ones omitted).

If you have any doubt, correction or opinion, just comment!

I hope to keep it updated, (or at least release a new one if too much time passes).

Yeah, this table right now is the most updated thing you will find.

I hope you enjoy!

OBSERVATIONS:

  1. This table was last updated 09/09/2023

  2. Data was manually gathered by me from every single listed Indexer... EXCEPT for: NZB.cat and Tabula-Rasa because I couldn't get into them.

  3. PLEASE HELP WITH BETTER INFO IF YOU HAVE IT. Help correcting any inconsistency. I hope to keep the table updated.

  4. Every Indexer that does not accept any type of cryptocurrency accepts PayPal (or is free).

  5. There are some deliberate indexer omissions (mainly: wtf, in, omg and to) because besides not being a member of any of these omitted sites (as I wish I was), I understand that they don't like to be exposed and I respect that. If you represent any site listed that also don't want to be in this table, message me.

  6. Use this info as you wish, just credit the Usenet Lemmy community to help increase its' visibility and share the joy.

  7. For more info on how and why I created this table, read my comment bellow, and be welcome to comment and discuss about the aforementioned indexers.

Denuvo is the apex of a long history of bad choices.

Maybe actually sell us the games in a way we really own it, without any sort of online activation/account/telemetry/data-gathering like when we could buy a disc and just use it, and it should all be ok.

I feel like a dinosaur every-time I think this nowadays, but what is so problematic with the "own as in physically own" that is so hard to implement? If they want to provide a service, sell a service.

In the past I used pirate versions of games I bought just to be able to play them offline, or because I did not agree with the terms of service. It is so much for our info, it goes beyond just knowing you are the real owner of the software copy: it comes to the point where it looks like it's to guarantee we are not its' owner.

Now some DRMs even destroy gaming performance and its just faster to use 'ked versions. I hope it changes somehow.

Hello!

~~Could somebody please send me an invite to~~ DOGnzb? I am interested on it due to its' fame for international content.

I know I have to pay for the indexer, and I will.

EDIT: Received! Thank you very much!!

Thanks for answering, I'm not trying to circumvent these sites rules, but to actually better understand em.

I get it that they are probably defending themselves from attackers, abusers, or who knows what else. I just fear that needing people's real IP at time of registration (and even accumulating data that links this ip to the future use of the site) can become a big problem in the future, if something bad happens to them. I mean, they can even be forced to handle their users data, some sites have done that already, using it as "bail"/negotiation when pressured (Torrent Freak has some examples).

So I thought that since the problem could be some user causing harm to their sites, maybe having some other static ip address route (not a shared vpn address) could suffice. But I don't know if that's the case.

Thanks for your suggestion, are they ok with that or would it be considered cheating?

Hello, I would like some info about VPN usage at private trackers. I know it is a per-tracker policy but I notice many being a bit hostile toward em.

Example: A user would like to join a tracker, put a seedbox to help em seeding et al, but even while they allow VPN usage, they don't allow signup with the VPN on (and that absolutely defeats the reason of not having the user's real IP/time logged to a server that may be somehow attacked or forced to give theirs users details for some reason, even if that never happened before in such server). In that case the user would be de-"pseudonimizing" all their future use of the site via VPN since if their users details ever leak that could bind the future use of the site trough a VPN to the initial non-vpn IP address. This example affects every PHD sister sites, I believe.

So, I have some questions on that issue, if someone could help:

    1. What is the ideal way to proceed in such situation? Are socks5 or other methods better accepted to unbind the use of the tracker site to the user IP address? (I'm talking about the trackers not even being able to handle such information in case something goes wrong. Not about an ISP or whoever else. Legality is not the concern here, but the very existence of the info itself).
    1. Is there any place where we can find this info about trackers policies on VPNs? I did search but never found anything unified.
    1. What trackers you know that simply don't care about the use of VPN? Which ones "don't care" but asks you to tell them (configure) your vpn details? Which ones absolutely don't allow them?

Thanks to anyone who can shed a light on these questions!

Thanks for sharing the existence of a Spanish language indexer! I am having a hard time with Spanish content, specially when looking for quality, even for well known Spanish Directors. I often found newseros stuff in some of the indexers I mentioned but that was all, and I know better releases for the same stuff exists, just not inside the indexers I've searched (and I searched in sooo many!) or maybe not inside Usenet. Same for some Belgian content.

usenetHD.li has no API, am I right? If so, every search has to be done inside the site (forum). In the other hand, when leaving automation aside, the place could have a nice forum.

Maybe if you answer their invite tweet you could be lucky, somebody was answered in 2022. (Pidelo hablando castellano, claro). Else, they seem closed for a long long time.

If you manage to get in, let me know! Even if it has no API, I would love to have a source for Iberian and Latin-American content at Usenet, as until now this area was the weak spot of my searches. I wont tweet them because I don't use twitter. For now, lemmy became the last "social" place I still find myself logging in.

Just to share this useful tool and to have it here @Lemmy.

I have never found anything as detailed as this on "retention per provider" analytics. This site allows us to set a newsgroup and check the retention of most providers for the given newsgroup.

I have just used the largest newsgroup available for the linked URL, but you can check any newsgroup and see how the providers behaves on each one, updating every minute.

Thanks for the heads up. Almost missed it!

Anybody knows if Dog only opens during BF and February or there is hope this year before BF?

Major change i found to be noted as of May 2023: "client-side NNTP traffic to/from the vipernews.com / uzoreto.com domains are being served by UsenetExpress" So maybe the map is wrong on that backbone's independence.

Yet another update for the backbones map posted before here. Keep in mind that it is still some months old, but was the last one made by this person.

If anybody has updates to its' information, please comment so that we can update the svg ;)

I hope it's usefull! (And don't forget whatsmyuse.net as a reference too…)

Hello! I would like to better know what you guys think is best in specific indexers. For instance, easynews websearch is good to find a lot (even newly released) shows from both US, UK and DE. I was surprised with the availability of european movies there and it has some good filtering options (ui v2 is just better, looks more like a normal indexer webpage). My example is not the best since easynews is not quite an indexer per si, but could you guys tell what makes your favorite indexers better for you? Is one better organized? Is another good for any specific niche (ie: japanese stuff, or euro shows, or latin american movies or whatever) ? I know it has been asked a lot and written a lot elsewhere, but it could be nice to have some content here @ lemmy too!
