Read this Register article today and was wondering if anyone here still use Usenet newsgroups? And if so, what are your top recommended newgroups to subscribe to?

    I logged into my Usenet provider yesterday. I read groups related to my hobbies, so not sure my recommendations would do you much good.

      Last time I checked out various newsgroups on different topics they were all pretty dead. What topics/which groups are you looking at?

        Busiest one I read is probably uk.media.radio.archers about the BBC radio show

        One of the posts on there today was about this article: https://www.theregister.com/2023/08/30/usenet_revival/

        which seems optimistic but a man can hope
