If I use and Android Telnet app, It's not usually like that, or at least not
as noticeable.  I installed SyncTerm in My Termux setup, but haven't tried My
BBS with it yet, although A couple of others look strange,in other ways.

I'd like to try sime others, but I'm having trouble locating ANSI telnet
programs that run from the command line in Linux. 

But I've set that to the side for the moment, I have content ideas I'm
exploring that I'd like to figure out, as part of the overall "Make BBS
relevant again" movement.

I've got too many pans on the fire......,
