Reddit, despite its own flaws, is the closest thing to Usenet in terms of a text-oriented display with keyboard-heavy navigation (with Reddit Enhancement Suite).
- jandrese 7y agoReddit is definitely closest to the old Usenet experience, but its search engine and filters leave something to be desired.
- anthk 7y agoI prefer uncensored.citadel.org. Yes, no https support, but you can login over SSH with ssh bbs@uncensored.citadel.org and use it as a modern BBS. It works great.
- EamonnMR 7y agoI love finding these retro-net communities. Another good one is the bboard at sdf.org.
- astronautjones 7y agowarning for other users: i randomly clicked on the israel subforum and politics one and... yikes. chan-level bigotry
- jandrese 7y agoI'm not in love with the interface to be honest. It's great if you want to consume absolutely everything, but if you want to pick and choose in a topic thread there isn't a summary view as far as I can tell. It's kind of like reading specific #hashtags on Twitter.
