  • How to access r.g.cw after Google close the Usenet gateway

    From John Metcalf@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jan 11 19:30:38 2024
    Google Groups will be closing the Usenet gateway from 22 February. To
    continue reading / posting you need to sign up to a free Usenet NNTP
    server and use a newsreader.

    rec.games.corewar is available via the following servers:

    * https://www.solani.org

    * https://www.eternal-september.org

    I'm currently using the Pan newreader which is available for Windows,
    Mac and Linux and only takes a few minutes to set up. Alternatively, Thunderbird supports newsgroups:

    * https://pan.rebelbase.com

    * https://www.thunderbird.net

    Please let me know if you've found a newsreader for Android or iOS, any
    other servers which carry r.g.cw, or a working mail2news gateway.

    Colin Macleod is currently developing a free web client to access Usenet newsgroups. It still has a few rough edges, but no problems reading or
    posting to r.g.cw:

    You can browse r.g.cw without an account, but you need to sign up if
    you'd like to post.
