oh, I guess I'm definitely in the self hosting category, running most of my services on my own hardware.
4.3GB is actually surprisingly low. I anticipated needing several TB. I would be looking for peers with a similar interest in keeping the good parts of good old Usenet alive, without the porn, copyright violations, and other nonsense. Been using it since 1987 or so.

interesting. I was just pondering what would be involved in running my own news server again. It's been decades since I last did that. I would rather not depend on a single commercial upstream provider, so I'm wondering if there's still an active (and sensible) peering community to exchange with. I would certainly filter rather rigorously to a set of (mostly spam free) core discussion groups. I can't dedicate 100s of TB of disk space to this...
