I'm on the lookout for prime-but-empty USENET real estate to stage a
revival, mostly via the Fediverse.

This ng looks thoroughly disused, yes?

I want someplace to point people whenever they lament the "passage" of
USENET. There's positive energy in the Activitypub-federated social
media sites running Mastodon and Pleroma, but it's a crap way to have
real, threaded discussions.

Agreed, as much as I love Mastodon and the rest of the Fediverse, they
are lacking when it comes to longform threaded discourse.

I re-read your other posts and get the logic behind your idea, although
it would really need substantial buy-in from the other Usenet denizens...
but Hell, I'm game.
