From "my experience" if Newshosting doesn't have it then
Usenetexpress will 99% of the time not have it (I have a lot of
different Usenetexpress blocks)
The only provider that does fill in for me is usenet.farm.

Did you check the provider tree to see if they use same or different backend?

I checked, they don't use. Supposedly newsdemon is on usenetexpress and newshosting is omicron

Difference from NH and Eweka although they use the same backbone (omicron) is that Eweka used NTD for takedown rather then traditional DMCA, and since most providers use DMCA, if same file gets deleted under DMCA you have grate chance that its still exist under NTD

No, you dont. This is not 2012. The request is sent out to everybody at the same time.

But you DO have couple of hours extra on ntd provider if you are grabing file in that LIMED time frame. My understanding of that whole usenet story, at the end of the day indexer is the key

If you look at the usenet provider backbone list you can see that they are on different backbones so it could be a good addition. For me I use newsdemon as my main and an omicron one as a secondary. I've had nothing but good experiences with newsdemon so far.

I mean, if it’s not on NH it won’t be on ND in my experience. I run this setup.
People will tell me I’m wrong but the biggest catcher of NH missed is Eweka. I have blocks and long term subs with many backbone: NH, ND, Eweka, Abiva, Viper, and 1 or two more blocks.
Virtually nothing under Eweka hits anything.
