Dunno. If you use TB *and* NovaBBS it's already 2 things. Same time depends on you.

No. But maybe yes.

TB supports filters that can be used as a killfile.

The Nova BBS site is a good start for a free, web-based, Usenet reading
site. A couple of observations:

- It's not complete.

Sure, there are thousands of newsgroups, not all active, most filled
with noise, but many active and on-topic ones are missing. Maybe
start with adding the ones that are in the following list:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ClassicUsenet/comments/197lvp8/sample_newsrc_file_for_recommended_newsgroups/

- The naming convention for direct URL's to each newsgroup includes
about a half-dozen somewhat arbitrary sub-hierarchies that are not in
the standard Usenet namespace, including:

- arts
- aus+uk
- computers
- devel
- interests
- tech

For example:

https://www.novabbs.com/arts/thread.php?group=alt.arts.poetry.comments

This could be confusing for readers trying to remember and construct
direct URL's for bookmark files.

Those are only categories for the group list locally.

I dunno if the URL format can be changed.

Thanks! Always looking for groups that people might actually use. I don't want to just add everything and have ppl visit and see either no activity, or just garbage in groups.

As the admin of this web based site, I hear from people very familiar with Usenet, and have users that don't really know much about Usenet (it's just a web forum for them). The intention is not to clone the visible structure of Usenet as much as possible (hence sorting by subjects instead of hierarchies), but to provide groups that are shared around the world (therefore not dependent on my sites) for people to communicate. The underlying structure is Usenet, but the interface is really just meant to be more forum like.

The software itself (I'm the developer) is meant to maintain Usenet standards as closely as possible (proper header construction, references, plain text body etc.), and to interoperate properly via nntp without troubling seasoned Usenet users that will see the posted messages. But there is no real intention to present every detail of the structure of Usenet to the users.

I have a link on my sites that offer users the opportunity to get a real news server account, and use a newsreader. For users that want access to all that is Usenet, I point them in that direction. For the users that end up saying (and I see this), "I just couldn't (be bothered|figure it out)", they just stay on the website.

Try putting a different section name from the list in the url:

https://www.novabbs.com/arts/thread.php?group=alt.arts.poetry.comments
https://www.novabbs.com/computers/thread.php?group=alt.arts.poetry.comments
https://www.novabbs.com/tech/thread.php?group=alt.arts.poetry.comments

Many users of novabbs don't think in terms of Usenet hierarchies. Having sections start with 'alt' or 'rec' would make no sense to many of them, plus then you have alt.rock.music listed right next to alt.ribeye.steak.cooking
