Hi all

Can anyone recommend a replacement for my current newsreader

Sina App?

I've been using it for years, but more often than not recently

I use an android Hudl if anyone remembers these accessing content

Groundhog.



Groundhog was fine but doesn't work on modern devices as there's no

menu
button. The virtual menu button (long press on "recent/switch") has

gone
too. This leaves no way to get to Groundhog's configuration

options,
though maybe this would help ...

I'll try it later ...

Replying via Groundhog on a Galaxy S9, Android 10 with the menu
button emulator.
It works but is fairly clunky and displays ads in spite of Ublock and
Pihole.
