   Hi! Roger,   
      
   On 10 Apr 19 19:49, you wrote to me:

   Same, same.  For the present I've opted for bookmarking a site that (sounds   
   like it's...) similar to their original (pre-2007?) webforum, in the closing   
   announcement comments.

   I wouldn't have.  For a recommendation I would nominate either of two   
   Ubuntu-based iterations from April last year (their 18.04 LTS releases).  I'm   
   running both at present: with 'Xubuntu' desktops on both PCs here, with one of   
   them running a 'Lubuntu' VM in VirtualBox... which may replace the Fidonet   
   *function* on this PC.   
      
   Both distro versions are "reviewed" by a bloke named 'DistroTube' on YT, who   
   goes through the installation procedure on each and has some fun with   
   installed software.  Both are about 20 minutes runtime, and are entertaining   
   as well as informative.  (Four stars out of five, each.)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
