   PQ> Hi! Roger,   
       
   PQ> On 10 Apr 19 19:49, you wrote to me:   
       
   PQ> Same, same.  For the present I've opted for bookmarking a site that   
   PQ> (sounds like it's...) similar to their original (pre-2007?) webforum, in   
   PQ> the closing announcement comments.   
       
   But they still track you via cookies.   
       
   PQ> I wouldn't have.  For a recommendation I would nominate either of two   
   PQ> Ubuntu-based iterations from April last year (their 18.04 LTS releases).   
   PQ> I'm running both at present: with 'Xubuntu' desktops on both PCs here,   
   PQ> with one of them running a 'Lubuntu' VM in VirtualBox... which may   
   PQ> replace the Fidonet *function* on this PC.   
       
   If my eyesight doesn't worsen, I may give it another go, but there will be   
   hoops to jump through because of D'Bridge.   
       
   PQ> Both distro versions are "reviewed" by a bloke named 'DistroTube' on YT   
   PQ> who goes through the installation procedure on each and has some fun with   
   PQ> installed software.  Both are about 20 minutes runtime, and are   
   PQ> entertaining as well as informative.  (Four stars out of five, each.)   
       
   I wouldn't mind watching a video of that.   
       
       
   Regards,
