I have tried a few different readers now, and none of them really clicked.
 
Usenet could perhaps be enhanced if I could only find the one...
 
Thunderbird, Pan, Agent, Newsbin, Unison, Hogwasher, Usenapp.
 
Mail integration that you can not hide, no dark theme, stuck in the dial
up-era á la press enter/double click to retrieve messages, etc.
 
I have not bothered with the text-based clients.

  Perhaps you should have.
 
  For example in my newsreader (tin), I can page through unread articles
with only <tab> and <space>. My hand rests on the keyboard and my
pointing finger rests on <tab> and my thumb on <space>. No hand movement
needed, just pressing the keys under my resting fingers.

  No need for <enter> or double-clicks. A "mouse"? What's *that*!? :-)

Hm.
 
Usenapp.
 
They could rename it to something cool.
 
It costs money, but it is for macOS. :)

  tin is free, but if you want, you can pay for my advice! :-)

  tin, The Ideal Newsreader

Okay, you are it!
