    I'm currently using Usenapp and wondering if this is the best way to
    read discussions and post on usenet. Generally I like it, but it hangs
    frequently when reading long threads or sometimes when refreshing
    headers. I'm wondering if there is a better solution for browsing and
    reading discussion threads on Mac? Thanks for any suggestions.

    if you want something made specifically for the mac there's Unison, be
    aware that it is abandonware, slightly buggy from my usage, and has
    retained the looks of late 2000's mac apps (which may or may not be a downside)

    Pan is available through Homebrew and MacPorts
