there is also https://whatsmyuse.net/ that is not in a confusing map form. also i dont think that map is current as can be.

it shows in the provider section. do you mean in the backbone section? it is just under the Omicron(AMS) backbone, nothing really special about it
yes this seems grossly out of date. https://whatsmyuse.net/ is better laid out imo and seems to be updated as far as the backbones that are gone or resellers that have moved.
Are you finding the posts to begin with on Geek? How old are the posts that are failing? if they are under 3000 days then they are most likely taken down and it really wont matter which service you use. Copyright requests hit them all. You either need to find a repost on geek or on another indexer or move on. Some stuff is just targeted much more than others. If they are really old posts then you may need an account with higher retention (still no guarantees its there though). that is where the frugal blocknews account with yearly comes into play.
undefined> I agree. Although Usenet.farm is not as useful as it seems at first glance. They say 3000+ retention but that’s only for text. Actual files they apparently only save for up to 70 days and only heavily accessed files for longer.
i dont disagree, usenet express based services do the same thing with their retention claims as well. it is to bad but it is what it is and no one is able or seems to want to take these services to task over misleading claims.
Frugal imo is best bang for your buck and you get usenetfarm to go with it.
i am sure the usenet sub will be back but they really half assed it when they closed it. did they give like 8 hours notice? ironically usenet is the best place to go. this whole fediverse thing is like trying to recreate the wheel when you have usenet here already ready for the discussions. not sure if the masses could handle it though since there are no good apps.
there is a squabbles https://squabbles.io/s/usenet and a kbin https://kbin.social/m/usenet Seems like things are just fracturing so much though especially for a small sub like r/usenet
