Since this is for usenet, I hope it is okay to post this..

After a lot of work, I'm happy to finally introduce Oblivio, a new terminal-based (TUI) Usenet newsreader.

If you spend your time in a terminal and prefer a fast, keyboard-driven interface, Oblivio was built with you in mind. It's still evolving, and I'd love to hear feedback, bug reports, and feature ideas from fellow Usenet users.

Give it a try, kick the tires, and let me know what you think.
