usenet for bulk current media, occasionally torrents for niche stuff, but now that rarbg is gone I'm going to have to find a new tracker. I use a seedbox for most torrent activity these days as well, too risky with ISPs clamping down.
Once upon a time I used DC++ for things, but that was more than a decade ago and the last time I tried it all the severs seems to be in eastern eu countries and very shady. If anyone knows a good DC++ server I'd love to hear more.
How does one even use usenet today? Sorry for the dumb question. I just don't know where to start
I'd recommend to use a raspberry pi for an automated Usenet setup.
You'll need
Once set up, it's very comfortable and hassle free, it can grab new media from your fav lists, download when released and upgrade your files as soon as available, fully automated.

You are visiting a fake one then, rarbg is gone for good.
Real one is: https://rarbg.to/
Why did it go down? What happened?
If you open the website, it's written right there.
For the lazy people.
Ah I see thanks! The website was not loading for me
there are a few very out of date copies of the site afaik, but rarbg.to went down as of 1st this month i think?

Ya, the original site is gone. There are mirrors cropping up based on a db dump of some kind, but the old site is gone.
Between RARBG shutting down, and Reddit killing off their API, June represented some big changes in my Internet diet.
