Can you show posts in descending order (latest first)?
Thanks, but it doesn't seem to work when I try. I mean descending order within threads.
What is the groups list view?

Since you're posting from www.novabbs.com, I'll assume that's what you're asking about :)
Click the 'View Latest' button on this page: >https://www.novabbs.com/arts/thread.php?group=rec.music.rock-pop-r%2Bb.1950s
Also available in the groups list view, the down arrow looking thing to the left of the group names.

at Nova, my PC will not let me click to another page because
the "+" in the newsgroup name is not auto converted to "%2B"

I think I fixed that about 30 minutes ago. If it still doesn't work please let me know.

If you are logged in, then group list view there will be a link
under the group name, and it would show all the new articles postedsince
the last time you entered the group, latest on top.
It will also move the groups you read to the top (as Subscribed).
Not by thread, just by posts in the group.

Excellent information for future reference.
Retro Guy, will Nova BBS include an archive of posts in the future?
I don't think there is one, currently?
Currently, messages expire in 3 years, or 100,000 articles per group,
whichever comes first.
I do not plan a permanent archive, just the ability to interact with more
recent discussion as it is now.
A huge archive going back decades probably becomes cumbersome fast.

I do run a news server that has articles back to 1983, but you'd need a >newsreader to read them.

I've always used a newsreader (and currently I'm not getting any
whatsoever in this newsgroup because of a simple filter set up1950s
within the newsreader; I also have an effective filter for the
binary newsgroup which is: "message-id: ngPost" )
My current low-cost Usenet server has messages going back to about
2003.

Curious about this as well
The news server with old articles is just that, only old articles and
mostly groups that are no longer used.
You can access at news.novalink.us port 119
{does not need user id and password}
{very easy to set up in a newsreader app such as T-Bird}
