Not really. The only errors/problems you`ll probably run into are old outdated
newsreaders that don`t do certain things how Synchronet would expect it to.

That`s completely your choice, as you`re the sysop. ;)

I see you`ve already found Pan. I`ve tried out just about as many as I could
find that still worked and/or compiled.
Otherwise, as it seems you`re using Linux, I`d say the better of the GUI
newsreaders would be Thunderbird, Claws Mail, and Pan (although Thunderbird has
it`s quirks at times, too). There`s also some nice console newsreaders as well,
but require a bit more configuration, like slrn, tin, neomutt, and alpine. slrn
is my favorite out of these choices, and what I still use when reading/posting
via NNTP(s). I also really liked neomutt, because while it has newsreader
functionality, it`s also a console email client (based off the original mutt).
However, when I contacted the main dev and asked about NNTP issues, he told me
unless I was willing to fix it myself and send patches, or find someone else to
continue the NNTP support.. he wasn`t interested in overhauling that outdated
code. I ended up going back to slrn after that.
Regards,
Nick
