Hi, could you please explain how you got this to happen? Thanks.

Interested myself as a usenet user.

Hi, not sure if this will work on roku, but it does fine on my nvidia, /u/Metigoth mentioned STN (SmartTubeNext) - it’s on github. You could download the apk and try side loading it. Edit: gotta get used to linking better.
I’m using nzbgeek to find stuff. Then put the links it returns into eweka - a usenet provider. I’m new to this, so I’m just dipping my toe in to make sure it works. Currently it does but I’m sure there are better deals if you look around.
I have a newsgroup subscription, but a lot of the posts are obfuscated (confused titles that don’t make sense) so you can’t read the post headers like you can in (say) lemmy or reddit (spit! ) . So I also subscribe to a nzb provider (makes sense of the obfuscated) .
In terms of money it’s not too much - like £20/year.
The nzb provider searches the usenet then your newsgroup host downloads what you want.
I’m probably not very clear, and this has been a learning curve for me, but if I can help I will, just ask. It’s good fun - especially when it works!
Edit: too many ‘buts’
Thanks for making it clear - I misunderstood the problem.
A fantastic job is being done by you folks - obviously in the face of adversity. Given the amount of users on the instance is at a critical point, would it not be possible to ‘move’ accounts off it onto other less populated instances ?
Keep up the great work folks - I sympathise for ya.
Nice one. Ok if I get my head into where I want to be with this and come back to you? Much obliged for the offer.
I still very much need to get my head around the aar software - something I find difficult as the more I look into it, the more complicated it seems to get.
Looks interesting, I’ll read the git as you suggested - thanks.
What is this exactly, how does it work?
A new one for me - looks very interesting, thanks.
Thanks for the link - I’ll definitely look into it.
