News flash! We've been hearing this for
well over a dozen years. It's kind of the
social media equivalent of climate change.

And have you noted how different USENET is from what it was over a
dozen years ago? The assertion was that USENET is dying, not that
it's already dead. It's obvious that we're witnissing the process
of fewer and fewer people communicating using USENET and it's a
monotonic sequence, a trend in the direction of extinction.

At some point there will be so few people on it that no one will
host USENET feeds, and that will cut down on the numbers
critically, and when thee's no profit to be made from USENET
hosting you'll have a situation where it is just about extinct,
with a small number of people able to access what's left of it in
some non-commercial way, and with probably no archives at all by
that time.

Unless something happens to reverse the trend, USENET will be only
a memory at some point in the not all that distant future.

It's kind of the
social media equivalent of climate change.


Speaking of a well documented trend.
