What are your guys suggestions on indexers?
I was wanting to start simple and manually grab stuff on my own, but I am reading that media is taken down so quick you have to have the automated setups you guys have described in order to be successful. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

They do not get hit by American takedown requests since they are wholly Euro based provider, and not part of the American Highwinds Usenet backbone, so their stuff is around most of the time. Like others have said, its a good idea to have a main Usenet account + block account from some other provider for fills OR Usenet account + VPN torrent for fills. I haven't had trouble finding anything I need using the latter combo manually that I can remember though most of my stuff is automated.
Indexers NZBGeek has been great for me, Drunkenslug works well as well. I've used NZBFinder as well in the past. There are some other suggestions on r/usenet too and did a lifetime with NZBGeek 7+ years ago on a BF discount. I would trial a few out before biting again to see what works best these days.
