Usenet, I’ve used it a lot back in 1990’s. But since then it seems to have gone into decline, cannibalised by Google Groups? There’s also quite a lot of very active discussion groups on Matrix.

Yeah, exactly my thoughts — something from my teenage years. Sure, it was great for the time, but now… I'm no longer sure 🤷
It's like some people are inviting me to hop on IRC — considering they are way younger than me 😆

I think it was announced not long ago that Google Groups would no longer interoperate with usenet and usenet guys were like: "Okay, we're out then. So long, Google! And thanks for all the fish",— an interesting development indeed, a perfect example when an attempt to force people into something didn't work so well 😂
