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.

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

Help with movie and Tv set up
One thing to consider is how frequently they health check the nzbs, if they have 10,000s of nzbs it could potentially take a long time. Tools like nzbCheck exist but I'm not sure if this is what is being used.
