Nah, these days I think most laptops comfortably can run INN without any
problems (you probably don't want a full official usenet feed, though).
But it takes a bit to configure.

There is a small network of privately run news servers - I retired from
participating some years ago, but it lives on: https://www.pnx.dk/
