Thought that some of you could find a good use for this.. I know I have some ideas for it.

Nice and snappy (IOW, fast!) My ISP has throttled me down to
45Kbps until my next billing cycle, but the page loads seem
instantaneous.

I narrower reading window would be better (akin to columns in a
newspaper( ..but it's easy enough to just bring in the edges of
a browser window.

Every once in a while the articles won't load great... or show some broken links; but still, its gold especially for BBSes. :P I have a few ideas of how to use it... thought most of our community would enjoy.

Cheers.

Is a link to a news site even allowed here? It directly links to nasty stuff like

'Matt Gaetz is everything the Republicans were looking for in Hunter Biden.'

and

'Infectious diseases expert: U.S. is "at the beginning" of a fourth COVID-19 surge'

Yea.. I don't think it breaks any rules that I'm worried about.

If we keep replying to it, too, I'm sure more people will see 68k.news and be able to browse with their web broswer and see more headlines.

Like:
Arkansas Governor Vetoes Ban On Gender-Affirming Care For Trans Youth - NPR

Apple CEO Tim Cook hopes Parler returns to App Store - Fox Business

First confirmed US case of 'double mutant' COVID variant found in California - WJW FOX 8 News Cleveland

Fairly sure this is a news aggregator, with articles from all different sources and sides of the aisle. Derp.

I'd assume it's allowed to talk about BBS add-ons that allow you to have CNN and Fox News headlines on your BBS.

This doesn't seem _all_ that different, since this crowd is way more likely
to be interested in a text news site.
