I used telix until I was able to download Terminate. Nostalgia overload going on over here. Do you remember HS/Link? Being able to chat with the sysop while downloading blew my mind at the time.

Nice, I will check this out on my Tandy 1000HX BBS machine. I haven't found an ideal terminal program for that config. I actually thought you typed "Terminus," which is the terminal program I used on the Amiga 1200 back in '92. Today, I use Radigan's predecessor to Terminus, JR-Comm on the Amiga 1000, which is the system I use most frequently for BBSing.

Some of these systems can be seen on my BBSing page: https://bytecellar.com/bbsing/

Yes! I remember JRComm! I used that up until 1994, on my A500 then A3000. Not sure why I never bothered to upgrade to Terminus.
