Groups.io VS Usenet.net

Seconding https://groups.io/ I'm in a number of amateur radio and computing groups there, and it works well. Launched on HN over a decade ago and still going strong - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2943131. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

I'm on a list or two that are run through https://groups.io/ and it works well. I also run a few private mailing lists on mailman and am loath to ever apply patches to that machine - it is complicated to set up, but works fine once done. In a greenfield implementation a docker installation might be better https://docs.mailman3.org/en/latest/install/docker.html. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

Following the suggestions of numerous members of several groups.io to which I belong, I made Brave my primary browser. Source: 6 months ago

Here are the current (July 2023) BBC World Service Broadcasts in English, courtesy of the ODXA. I wrote these out by hand from their monthly "World English Survey" by Harold Sellers, which you can get by email or by joining the ODXA at groups.io. I can get most of these in Ontario with a tower, good antenna, and an SDR ore communications receiver. Local time is of course for Ontario. Source: 10 months ago

Join the telegram group or go to groups.io and find out how to get it, you will probably have to wait a while but it's worth it. Source: 11 months ago

Thanks. I mean, it was broke so did need fixing. I'll cancel down usenet.net at the end of the month before it renews again. No point paying for that as Eweka seems much better so far. Source: over 2 years ago

So today after reading about the subreddit, I've signed up for Eweka using the cheap deal linked in the sidebar. My usenet.farm block account still has a while to run and is paid for so I might as well leave that on for now. The question is what I do going forwards. I will probably ditch usenet.net as its not particularly cheap (its just on a rolling monthly payment currently). But what do I replace it with? Source: over 2 years ago
