Speaking of Unison, how many 1.8 users have migrated to 2.x yet?

I am a big fan of Unison, despite it's myriad failings in the eyes of
users of other newsreaders. Like most programs it's a matter of
whether you can hotwire it to work efficiently for your own use.

But the interface for 2.x seems such a pain. Of course it seemed a pain
when I moved from [unnamed product] to Unison initially.

I'll probably try to migrate soon and see if I really can acclimate to it.

I upgraded and have grown to like it. My initial frustration was with
the thread view option; I couldn't figure out how to get it to jump to
the next thread without using the mouse. I hate using the mouse unless
I have to. So I changed to the overview option and it works like I am
used to (using the space bar for navigation).

That is one of my complaints too, I have to run the thing via mouse,
rather than keyboard. And (as mentioned in the previous post) I had
bent Unison v1 to my will in that regard.
