Right now I see that https://news.novabbs.org is working

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

Yes, both working for me too now.

i didn't realize there were both .Org and .Com

Maybe someone fixed NovaBBS ???

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

Just now, NovaBBS said:
The Message Server rejected the message:

but it got posted (and propagated) anyway

NovaBBS has been down for 2 or 3 consecutive days.



Even more troubling is that... all the libgen mirrors (of the original GUI) are now gone.

https://libgen.li/ is working, but this is different from what was available before.
