I’ll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

The download speed on any popular release will max out even the fastest connections. I assume the retention for less popular content is a lot better on trackers, but I don’t have enough experience with usenet to say that for sure.

Usenet connections can be encrypted. No need for a VPN or any other obfuscation.

Torrents can be encrypted as well, and there isn’t a need for a VPN unless you use public trackers, which I don’t recommend.

What is the monthly fee for Usenet? I’m more in favor of decentralized systems with the use of seedboxes to speed up distribution, but I’m not against usenet either.

About 5 bucks a month or a little less if you pay by the year.
