    the best freeware newsreaders are 40tude Dialog and MicroPlanet Gravity;
    both are full-featured, user-friendly, and fairly easy to setup and use,
    especially MicroPlanet Gravity which is also more up-to-date (2021-5-2):

    I tried MicroPlanet Gravity on my Windows laptop that I use for programming, however I could not post:

    441 Invalid syntax encountered in From header field body (unexpected byte or empty content line)

    I checked and the "From"-field does have my information in it.

    It probably does not support Unicode (or anything except ASCII) and is
    having issues with letter '||' in 'S||derberg'.

    As far as I know, Homebrew is intended for programs that cannot be
    installed directly under macOS, which is not the case with MacCaf|-. So
    what would be the point of this type of installation?

    I would agree. It probably would make more sense to make MacCaf|-
    available via App Store. Currently, if you search for "Usenet" in App
    Store on OS X, you'll only get Hogwasher and NGroup (which is the
    weirders newsreader I ever saw).
