It‘s been more than 2 years that animetosho plead uploaders to stop RAR‘in their Usenet uploads. What are Your thoughts on this in 2023?
Some servers seem to be rather unreliable regardless, but I (anecdotally) found it to be more reliable with the slightly smaller article size. it's worth pointing out that NewsUP found the same thing independent of my findings. ngPost's default is also 700K, but it seems to have always been that way.

Usenet Posting - Obfuscation, PAR files, RAR uploads and other things
That's the conclusion I came to, but contrary to expectations, I saw newer uploaders lowering it to 700k for compatibility instead. - https://github.com/demanuel/NewsUP/pull/67 - https://github.com/animetosho/Nyuu/issues/1

Is there a CLI tool that can check nzb completion ?

Noob trying uploading/posting to Usenet
Can someone eli5 how to do it? I've looked at https://github.com/animetosho/Nyuu/wiki/Usenet-Uploaders but I don't know to how to install these. The github links on that page are confusing to me as I don't know where to click to actually download the programs.

Usenet library
* does depend a bit on how crazy/complex you want to go I suppose. My NNTP implementation ended up being a lot less straightforward, as I put a lot of effort into error handling / retry functionality (which I don't see implemented in most libraries), and speed optimised yEnc isn't exactly straightforward either

Dealing with RAR formats
It's used as a poor man's BitTorrent equivalent for FTP, in some prominent sharing circles. Of course, BitTorrent exists, but getting some people to adopt technology invented this millennium can be difficult. It's also still used by many Usenet uploaders likely due to misconceptions on how the system works. Again, it makes little technical sense today, but it's an old environment with a lot of old traditions.

Large binary post PAR2 help please
You do not need to split your file. RARs are unnecessary on Usenet https://github.com/animetosho/Nyuu/wiki/Stop-RAR-Uploads

Is it possible to stream the videos instead of downloading it?
In theory, it's possible if there's no missing articles and uploaders stop RARing uploads.

how
All the posting tools make a NZB file as they upload https://github.com/animetosho/nyuu

Going in on Raspberry Pi 4 for downloading
Yet another reason to get uploaders to stop RARing uploads. Just spreading the word around ;)
