We're busy playing with our RC2014s and vintage Kaypros running CP/M.

There seems to be a lot of CP/M discussion going on in other forums, like FaceBook groups, Google Groups, VCFed.org.

Since Google Groups stopped serving news (at least comp.os.cpm), it's
harder to find a way to post. It took me two hours this morning just to
find something I could use to reply here, as narkive wouldn't allow me to post, login, or sign up. There seem to be very few free nntp servers
anymore. I hate to suggest it, but perhaps newsgroups are dead...

Use news.eternal-september.org in Thunderbird.

Sad. It was a great improvement over all its successors.

That's what I'm using, but in 'pan' as thunderbird is not allowing me to subscribe to "comp.os.cpm" for some reason - not seeing any groups offered
for subscription. I also don't want to clutter my email client with news,
if possible. But finding eternal-september took awhile, and other "free" servers seem to be either gone or no longer free.

That's a problem with servers allowing access to local groups without
logging in and to more only after logging in.

If your in Australia, this works well via Thunderbird using Outlook
outgoing server.

Yes and the admin there has been very helpful sorting out issues if/when they arise.
I didn't mention ausics as it's my understanding they're a small service restricted
to AU users.

A few of us are still here at least, even after the demise of Google Groups <-> Usenet gateway.
