Rest assured I have no plans of changing the habits of a lifetime,
whatever some n00b may think.

I am no closer to getting the blasted thing working, though.

I gave up getting cloud gnus to work when it was introduced in 2016, and
continued to use Ted Zlatanov's 2011 vintage gnus-sync.

However... one thing that made gnus-sync continue to work, was me having
a 2016 git gnus still in the load-path (gnus-sync needed stuff from the
old gnus).

However things seemed to sort of, kind of work, so I have procrastinated
on getting rid of gnus-sync.

However, with emacs 27, introduced on the debian bullseye upgrade,
things started to break.

So both gnus-sync and the old git gnus have been scrubbed from my emacs
config.

So I either learn to live without gnus syncing... or I get cloud gnus to
work.

The first is not an option, so here we are.

Can't be many users of cloud gnus, based on the responses on the
problems in 2016 and the second time I tried in 2020.

I think maybe Lars uses cloud gnus, and probably Ted, but neither of
them are much to see around here, these days.

Next step out is to read the source code and start debugging to see
what's actually going on (but that won't happen tonight).
