Posted this over in r/retrobattlestations, connecting to their
official BBS on a living IBM 5150!

What are your recommendations for other active BBSs to connect to?

What phone service are you using ?  Does a POTS line still cost an arm
and leg for LD?  I looked at getting a regular home phone back about a
year ago, but AT&T wanted like $40/month and still would be charged
for LD calls that are free from my cell.  And BBSing over VoIP is
still sketchy at least from my experience.
