Now that NovaBBS is apparently or possibly going to disappear...
Im trying to find an alternative.
the NovaBBS GUI was quite nice.... this one (NewsGrouper.org)
is good too....
If i can put 2 (or more) blank lines in a row, that'd be nice.
My biggest (possible) Gripe right now is....
The thread with the latest activity (post) doesn't rise to the TOP?

Yes, this is the only big problem I'm seeing.
(A much smaller problem is....
I liked how NovaBBS showed me all the Posts in a Thread)

Just now (for 2 minutes) NovaBBS was running fine.
Maybe this would happen once a day (every day) in the
morning.

Maybe someone fixed NovaBBS???
For me, possibly... the nicest features of Newsgrouper.org (GUI)
are:
Everything is very fast
searching for available NGs
The list of The NGs i've visited
.......... the Rot13 Button
Right now I see that https://news.novabbs.org is working
but https://www.novabbs.com is not.

Both working for me a minute ago. Only difference seems to be in a
couple of lines at the top of the page.

NovaBBS GUI is ... better in letting me see many posts (of the
Thread) on
the same page (vertically) ----- because of this, if both are
available,
i'd use ths first (or more often)
Also, i like being able to go quickly easily to other Xposted NGs.

Another way that Newsgrouper is better is ... it lets me X-post to
several NGs (not just 3).
but when I Xpost to more than 4 (or so?), some Anti-Spam filter kicks in.
being able to enter Extra blank lines
