There is a fee but it is negligible, you just need to buy on sales. As for indexers just get a one or two life times and it will pay itself over time. I only have one subscription indexer, the rest are life time.

This is last year’s black Friday sale: https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/comments/1p3ajl6/_/

Never buy usenet full price

You can get it some usenet providers for as little as $30 year which is $2.5 a month, maybe ever cheaper.

Lots of them offer trials if you just want to try it

Lime is the issue, I removed it for this exact reason. I mainly use usenet if I want torrents I will look for it manually. Usenet is way safer than torrents from my experience.
