Sadly “Xnews" for Windows hasn’t been updated in 15 years, it was pretty good
when I was using it for a short while. It’s old enough now that it’s ontopic
for this list, if you use the lists original definition of “classic”, which was
more than 10 years old.
I like “Unison” on the Mac side, but it’s another one that hasn’t seen an
update in years.
On UNIX, I’ve been using “tin" for nearly 30 years.
At this point, I wouldn’t recommend trying to read USENET on OpenVMS, there are
a couple readers, but they’re even older than “Xnews”.
I’m not sure what’s currently available for AmigaOS, TOS, RiscOS, or Haiku
(BeOS).
Did USENET news readers exist for IBM Mainframes?
