Synchronet BBS VS Skimfeed

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

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 / about 2 years ago

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

Https://skimfeed.com has that simple brutalist interface I need in the morning. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

While LegibleNews does well in speed, to me, a newspaper or a news source needs to be extremely dense. I don't want to scroll forever to painfully be blasted with negative space. A single glance at the page should reveal all headlines. NYTimes and WSJ have a really good density of information. But, my favorite is this tech news site that loads fast and is super dense: https://skimfeed.com/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

The best there is IMO: https://skimfeed.com/ High density, compact and loads fast. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

Looks to be a common itch to scratch. Alongside some others that have been shared, here's one I bookmarked a while a go that does similar: https://skimfeed.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
