I'm sure this has been asked a million times...but wading through all the posts has my head swimming. I've been on a bunch of private torrent trackers for probably 20+ years. Each BF I think about jumping on the Usenet bandwagon and feel overwhelmed with the different parts and all the comments and reviews.

I have a homelab with half dozen servers, a full *arr stack (minus news) and have been in the IT industry in one way or another for 35 years.

I would appreciate a quick primer and recommendations for an indexer and news source(s) to help me get started.

Thank you very much for the help.
