Hi Friends and sorry for such a trivial and perhaps frequently-asked question. I haven't imagined it may be that difficult - seemingly there are or were many flavors of readers but among them
many non-free or for windows or not supported anymore.
So the situation is like this - I recently joined UseNet (though I was in Fido couple decades ago
so the concept is not completely new to me) communicating currently via NovaBBS, but as I understand it provides me access to few hundreds groups and to post to some more which are of
interest to me I need to pick nntp server and client. As for servers there seemingly are some
free for text-only groups which is enough for me (e.g. I read about i2pn2.org at the same novabbs).
But what about client?
1. I'm linux user so it should be available for linux
2. It shouldn't necessarily be mail client for its main purpose (I tried claws but feel unsure
about it for that sake)
3. It would be good if it is lightweight enough (Thunderbird seems a bit too fat already but not too much if you say it is definitely the best choice).
4. It would be all right if it is works in text-mode lacking fancy features for handling images and videos etc.
I guess it is definitely possible to try downloading this and that and something more and try
setting them up etc - but perhaps someone with similar situation can direct me with advice according to personal experience? thanks in advance!
