I have been using tin, a basic newsreader, for over 29 years now.
It all started on Digital UNIX back in the autumn of 1994.

Tin's UI is based on (n)curses and it is simple and effective to use.
Another somewhat similar but probably more advanced newsreader is
slrn.

No payment required for tin or slrn.
