      Private trackers are much better. I appreciate p2p as every user helps strengthen the tracker. And usually you pay with that support instead of with money.

        To be fair, that’s an issue for both torrent and usenet. If it’s popular enough, you will still find seeder or reupload 15 years later but if it’s not, you may be out of luck either way

        I was just making fun of OP for hating on cloud storage.

        Usenet is basically cloud storage as in it’s a server hosting it instead of peers. The advantage being speed. (Oversimplified)
