I wish we wouldn't use Google groups, I don't want login just to read a post.

    Strange, I always get presented with a login page and no way to bypass. Maybe it's a chrome thing.

  Is there some other publicly available historical USENET archive that you recommend? I'd rather not use Google too.

    If you get an account on Bottomless Abyss BBS [0], the message base has a USENET archive, but it only goes back to 2019 for comp.lang.lisp. So, useless for historical research, but fun for reading recent stuff. [0] https://bbs.bottomlessabyss.net/ https://bbs.bottomlessabyss.net/

      This seems like a fun scene. Is there like an "awesome" list of BBSs somewhere? Edit: Ooh, https://www.telnetbbsguide.com/bbs https://www.telnetbbsguide.com/bbs
