After migrating from Avon (Paul's)
Usenet service which was announced t
be sunset, when using real usenet
If you're just interested in the text
groups, have you checked out Eternal
September? I think that was the name,
anyway. It's free.
And probably at eternalseptember.org
I hope that's right.
Yes, I've heard of eternal-september. I had just recently learned of novabbs . And found the author/maintainer passed two months ago. He had a software project called rock solid light. He has some news groups fed by RSS feeds; and I pull them in my e-s.
I had read some bad things about e-s and didn't know if it was reliable to use as a feed for normal news groups. So I had went to a direct provider, and astra web had been recommented by a few people.
A work peer recommended news daemon and they have a block plan that can auto renew, at $3. And the block is 50GB vs 25GB @ $10 with astra. So that is what i'm using right now. Thanks for the pointer/reminder to e-s.
