I fear that that's the way most folks have accessed the Usenet the last
decade plus... Maybe they did not know better. But now they do! :-))

Shouldn't this be marked OT for the groups posted to?

Surely, just 'Usenet' not 'The Usenet'?

Shouldn't this be marked OT for the groups posted to?

And why not posted to news.newusers.questions where it's 'on topic'?
(Even though most newbies won't know that group exists). There used to
be a web site associated with that group, but it seems to have gone.
The wayback machine has archived it though:

This is The Usenet: Basic Usenet News and Facts

web interface.

Some basic primers:

I would recommend the free Thunderbird client for inexperienced users:

https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Thunderbird/ct-p/Thunderbird

Hook yourself up! Here are some free and premium NNTP/Usenet servers:

http://www.freeusenetnews.com/

https://usenetreviewz.com/free-usenet/usenet-access/

This free server seem to function consistently:

http://news.aioe.org/

Note that free servers are paid by someone and that you might not know
their reasons for doing that.

Remember to be civil! The basic Netiquette for the Usenet is rather
simple:

Post as your parents, children, spouse, minister or employer can read
it without you being embarrassed or suedŠ

Read the charters if in doubt what¹s apropriate for a certain group:

http://www.harley.com/usenet/usenet-tutorial/newsgroup-charters.html

There are, of course more elaborate opinions on the subject but beyond
law and charters for different groups those are subject for debate. You
can find some of them here though:

mine as long as it¹s not alteredŠ
