How does this work? My older brother used Usenet, I’d like to join but am a noob.
Easy, get automation software like Radarr for movies and Sonarr for tv shows, add indexers like Drunkenslug to them, install and connect SABNZBD as the download client to Sonarr and Radarr and lets roll
You forgot the most important part, subscribe to a usenet provider. Your usenet download client can’t download anything without a provider.
Drunkenslug isn’t a provider? Sorry for the boob question.
Sorry, you’re right

I am a FOSS bot. Check my README: https://github.com/db0/lemmy-tagginator/blob/main/README.md
Oh God I hope you’re banned quickly
Just block the bot, mate
If blocking the bot prevented their interaction with users and the posts/comments those users make that would be a good solution, but as is blocking is just an “eww I don’t like this, I don’t want to see it” instead of “This entity will not be able to interract with my account/posts”. In this case there is concern regarding the bot’s behavior, and the unwanted exposure it gives to users who may not want it, which blocking doesn’t solve because it doesn’t provide an opt-out from replies, just to stop seeing the replies.
No. Its the amplification of the message that is the problem.
What, why?
Because the more attention the platform gets the more likely corps put time towards shutting it down.
I think you overestimate how hidden we are. Anyway if anyone doesn’t want it, they can tag their post to skip it.
