Seems some of the mods on /r/usenet went on a power trip and deleted any post they didn’t agree with. A new sub Reddit was created called /r/UsenetTalk and people are abandoning the old one. In my opinion it is better to just move to Lemmy.
Well, the best instances for usenet people is here, https://discuss.tchncs.de or https://lemmy.dbzer0.com Both are incredibly welcoming. I understand people love what they’re familiar with, but the future is now. At least give them the choice.
People already mentioned Lemmy, no one joined, also the mod this Usenet lemmy group hasn’t posted anything in a year.

It already exists !usenet@lemmy.dbzer0.com
The tricky part is getting people to use it, for now most people seem to be fine using the general !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com community even for usenet.
