Amazed that the `tin` usenet news reader is still around and updated and that it is a thousand times better than any GUI I've used over the past year since I'm running my own news server again.

@gmc what news server would it be? I had half-an-idea of setting up one myself, but went no further.
@roughnecks I'm running inn on news.sonologic.net, peering with a bunch of other servers. It's amazing that it is still around and evrn has some groups with (mostly) sensible discussions and not a lot of spam.
@gmc I see  , so it isn't an administtrator's nightmare?
@roughnecks Hardly. It took a bit to reacquaint myself with inn again, but after that it's just been running with almost no intervention other thsn regular updates from the FreeBSD package repo.
@gmc Tin and news-mode (gnus?) in emacs are S-tier software to be sure.
