• Gophie – modern gopher client for Windows, Mac, Linux

  Seems like you got the easiest ways already, but perhaps the most fun way is through the Synchronet BBS system, which will run on Windows, Linux, or *BSD (not sure if this includes OS X...probably, with effort). It's primary purpose of course is to host an ANSI BBS, but it includes services for a web interface to the message base, as well as NNTP, gopher, ftp...heck, even POP/SMTP if you really wanna go nuts. ... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Five Things You Notice When You Quit the News

  Check https://synchro.net. You can access thru BBS's (telnet/SSH) or NNTP too, and you'll have night convos at FIDOnet and DOVEnet, both tech and non tech. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• The most unbelievable things about life before smartphones

  Rec.radio.shortwave Sometimes I interact over NNTP on https://synchro.net (they have a web/BBS interface too). As the pace is much slower, I can comment once or twice a week and everything is still good. Finally, Gopher and Gemini sites. A really slow pace, no ads, no likes, no bullshit. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Bear alternatives on PC

  You might check out iA Writer. https://ia.net/ If I didn't have a Mac with access to Bear, that's probably what I'd be using. Source: about 1 year ago

• I didn't realize the community has grown so much..

  Obsidian ai (a forked version of this theme is my main, I haven't released it publicly because the ui is a clone of my favourite app iaWriter https://ia.net/, and I don't think that's ethically right to share). Source: over 1 year ago

• Tools for structuring research notes and productivity/creativity

  Ia.net: looks good to build a personal wiki with hyperlinks (which is something I def want) but I fear this can get messy after a while and can loose overview easily. Source: almost 2 years ago

• How to find and remove all finished tasks [x] at once in a single txt document?

  Thanks, it works! Could you share a link to learn more about patterns and how to use them. Unfortunately I couldn't find any info on ia.net. Source: almost 2 years ago

• iA Writer's new site is up—where's the new update?

  I went to ia.net today to see if they had updated to a new site yet, and they had! Source: almost 2 years ago
