Thanks Rob. Are you using Unison? If you see here
https://imgur.com/JhuHJVe although I've entered the ES details it still
says '(Aioe.org)' at the top of the main window. Anyone know how I can
nuke the Unison prefs/cache??

Learn something new every day :-)
I too was affected by aioe quitting the other day. I didn't do anything
right away, waiting to see if it would come back. Today I switched to an
old server I used to use for emergencies (but it only allows reading,
not posting) and found this thread. I have been using MacSoup since
forever and I have to admit that before now I had never heard of Unison,
News Tap, Eternal September, GG or Imgur; Hogwasher yes.
Anyway, I signed up at ES and here I am, a happy camper. :-)

Unison seems to be behaving now (with ES), but it looks like aioe.org
is still down. NewsTap (iOS/iPadOS) is still playing up though - can't
figure out why it's not working.

Maybe you’ve not setup the Server settings correctly in NewsTap. Username, password etc.
I also use SSL.
Hopefully aioe will be back soon as I use it
as a backup to e-s. There doesn’t seem to be any other free nntp service providers. OK there’s GG but I’d rather not.

It just stopped working using the time tested/trusted settings.
I also use SSL.
Tried that - and each of the 4 or so options ES gives. Aioe was completely inaccessible - even their web page.

Yes, it's nice to have a backup. But when both fail at the same time . . .

I notice that some providers offer free trials so one could take advantage while aioe and e-s are both down!!!!!!

There are a lot of free usenet-providers.
A couple of them have a very bad reputation and are often filtered by
regulars. aioe.org is one of this idiot-servers.
Try this one as second provider:
