If you're one of the majority currently viewing the newsgroup through Google Groups, you've probably noticed they broke layout again.

If you use a plugin for user stylesheets you can use the following to fix the layout:

html-blob {
white-space: pre;
}

I'm currently using:

I have written a userscript called “ggFormatter”. [1] Its yet unpublished
version 0.2.4 defines, among others

.ptW7te { font-family: monospace; white-space: pre; }

But that does not work well with older articles, as I had to find out when
reading some by Richard Cornford recently, and it will stop working fully if
they change the class name again. I will try your suggestion, then.

Ceterum censeo Google Groups esse substitutam.

I suppose if you like horizontal scrolling such as in some of Julio
post.

I think you may like the results that pre-wrap provides much better.

One can still see Thomas's double spaces after the periods and no
nasty horizontal scrolling for long lines.

So why not using a newsreader like Thunderbird and a NNTP server
instead? I find this *way* better than Googe Groups to access usenet.

In my particular case I use more than six devices and maintaining software on each of them for this purpose is impractical. Thunderbird would be reasonable except that I do not have any desire to have multiple mail clients and the mobile options are questionable. I have significant integrations and dependencies on the Microsoft ecosystem and migrating to a mishmash of other technologies is non-trivial.

Now I know why I did not use the (custom) “html-blob” element type as
selector, but rather “.ptW7te”, where “ptW7te” is the class of the parent
“div” element: It can contain both the quote and the original/new text.

I thought that formatting the parent “div” element covers the formatting of
both quotes and the original text in one rule. But if I am not mistaken, so
does using “html-blob” now.

It is a trade-off: “pre” preserves the original line-wrapping, which is
important e.g. with source code, program output, log files and ASCII art;
“pre-wrap” does not preserve it, but makes Google-Groups-posted postings
with overlong lines containing prose, like that produced (probably
unknowingly so) by Michael Haufe in this thread [1], readable without
horizontal scrolling.

Unfortunately, it is not easily possible to tell prose apart
programmatically.

The same is true for “white-space: pre”. The only difference between “pre”
and “pre-wrap” is that also “Lines are broken […] as necessary to fill line
boxes.”

True, but that can also bite you later.

In passing, I noticed that viewing the original source of any posting is no
longer possible, too, because of “Either the e-mail adresses for this group
are anonymous, or you need the permission to view the members’ e-mail
addreses, to view the original message.” (translated from German)

Interesting. Do you have access to a Web server from all those devices, and
can run scripting languages on it server-side?

I do alot of consulting and contracting work so it's unavoidable.

I've debated making a web interface alternative to GG but I don't know how heavy of a lift that would be.

I can stand up a fully functional web server simply enough. What do you have in mind?

Do you know RoundCube with the "Elastic" theme? A newsreader similar to
this webmail client would be nice.

I have started developing a newsreader as a Web application. One could
install it one’s localhost, or, as in your case, you could install it on a
remote Web server that you have access to from all your devices.

Sounds intriguing - is there a public repository? Which
language/framework do you use? I am experienced with PHP/Symfony if any
help is welcome.

I'm a fan of Google groups but I think this is off-topic for the group.

The group disagrees.

I'm going to venture a guess that your reaction is due to my response to your other post.

<https://groups.google.com/g/comp.lang.javascript/c/IG4Z5xjz0T8>

We have a tendency to fall in love with our own creations and in your case
I'm guessing that is the most significant thing you've ever done and
you have much of your ego tied to it. Thus any criticism of it is taken
as a criticism of you personally.

Grow up.

This still works. (Actually, I'm doing "pre-wrap" but whatever.) But it has the unfortunate
side effect of doubling the line spacing. Is there a trick to delete whatever extra newlines
are being added?

I tried using Firefox's style editor to peek into the style sheets in use,
but there are dozens of sheets with hundreds of rules in each. And I don't know what I'm
even looking for.

I found something. Don't know what to do with it. GG appears to be inserting <br>
elements where the newlines go. So, can I style the <br>s to *not* break?

Why go through all this trouble? isn't there a traditional newsreader you
could use instead of google groups?

I use this in uBlock Origin (paste it into the My filters tab)

Well, yeah. I have gnus installed and set up. But somehow I can't get used to it.
I got used to the web interface back when it was DejaNews and just grumbled
and adapted as they've slowly crippled and shackled it. Maybe there's another
that'd suit me better. I keep hearing Thunderbird thunderbird thunderbird from
everybody. But, you know ... inertia.

That is to say, you're absolutely right. 100%. But I'm not gonna do it.

Yup. In the end its s straight cost benefit exercise - learning the
bloated feature ridden crap that is thunderbird, *or* fixing up the
interface on the web site.

Every time Thunderbird does a major upgrade I need to spend a day or two
researching the web trying to turn it back to how it used to look and feel.

"We don't fix bugs, we add new features"

It's called the 'Poettering Maxim'.

Also, it is correctly transcribed and pronounced {Qapla'} (with emphasis on
the last syllable; Klingon for “success”, “victory”), not ”qapplaH”.

{qap} means “insist” instead, in Klingon transcription there is no doubling
of consonants (e.g. “Kahless” is just {qeylIS}), and the verb modifier
{-laH} means “be able to”.

So, transcription errors aside, they said “(I am) able to insist” instead,
which will cause a Klingon to laugh at them (and then kill them for showing
weakness).
