This website is slow at times. Even if the website is up to speed the method is poor.
Select, download & read. Again, again, ect.
In newsreader format, the process is more like:
select chuncks of header and body to read, download, then read, read, read
Or, flag threads to watch and download headers and bodies as they grow
Or, configure on your reader usernames you do not ever want to see posts from, and you never do
using a newsreader means some processing is offloaded from your server to the user. Since you, Dr Bob, pay for the server it is your choice to pay more or less.
