Info from Google:

Starting on February 22, 2024, you can no longer use Google Groups (at groups.google.com) to post content to Usenet groups, subscribe to Usenet groups, or view new Usenet content. You can continue
to view and search for historical Usenet content posted before February
22, 2024 on Google Groups however.

There are other ways to access usenet. I use

http://individual.net

Another one is

https://news.eternal-september.org/

There may be others as well.

There are lots of them. Here are some reviews:

If you have a linux server it is not hard to run your own usenet
server but it´s probably not worth the hassle. I do, but I use mine
for a bunch of other private stuff.

I have been using news.eternal-september.org for years with no issues than occasional brief down times that usually only last a few hours. You do have
to get an account with a password, but it's totally free.

List of Usenet newsreaders on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Usenet_newsreaders

I use Forté Agent, which is a software client installed on
my computer.
https://www.forteinc.com/main/homepage.php
One-time purchase of the client software is $29. The client
has to connect to a Usenet server. The Agent software can
connect to any Usenet server. I use the Agent Usenet
Service, $2.95 per month.

There are also web-based clients, which do not require
installing anything. They work like Google groups.

Google knows too much and I never use them. Try duckduckgo.com and stop
giving your info away. JM2C

Re: news.eternal-september.org. Do you need to sign in to simply read
the content? Or is it like here, you only need to sin in to post?

TIA

Here's the info from their website. I believe you need an account to read
or post.
