Usenet is a spam-riddled cesspool, the only advantage it has over Reddit is that it is technically more open and it doesn't annoy you with its mobile app. I heard stories that it was better before eternal September, but I wasn't there, maybe some greybeards can comment on that.
And sure, some newsgroups stayed good, but the same can be said of Reddit. Some subreddits are very nice and technical, others are terrible.
