Google Groups user here, so I will bid you farewell, Doc.

Or you could just take out a Google Groups account?

Also not seen eternal-september.

I do have a google groups account, which I use for a mailing list that
is hosted there (not a nntp group), but I'm not going to use the web
interface.

It appears as if the Usenet Death Penalty has been given to Google Groups, to at least a certain extent.

Am I in the minority using Google Groups, then? Just how many on here won’t be able to view posts by Google Groups users?

RSS is already a shadow of its former self without the group becoming further divided along Google Groups/ Newsreader lines.

This is the only newsgroup that I don't block posts from
groups.google.com as generally the people here using Google Groups to
access Usenet are proper contributors and the spam is kept to a minimum.

Other places are not so fortunate!

'Google Groups' seems to be the main source of spam on Usenet, but on RSS
spam doesn't seem to be a big problem so long may that continue...

I use google groups! I don't even know what a newsreader is! If we can't access rss without google groups I won't even know how to access it.

As far as I remember, G2 (by which I think is meant google groups) usually ranks highly among the most used "newsreaders" in the stats that The Doctor posts here. So that suggests that we're not in the minority; I'm not sure though.

If The Doctor keeps having this problem, this could be a problem for UPT.

You will be able to access Google Groups... well, for long as Google run
the service. The issue is that not everyone will 'see' Usenet posts that
originate from Google Groups because of spam filters. You can just carry
on as normal...

Dave's problem is the flood of spam messages on other newsgroups that are
injected from groups.google.com ... here, spam doesn't seem to be as big
of a problem as it is on other groups.

Yes BS, G2 users are getting sucked in.

I assume that's because Google [Alphabet Inc] doesn't make much $$ from
it's gateway to Usenet... so they don't care who abuses the Google Groups
service to post spam.

I don't think so.
I think a lot of users are on Google groups, which is why I have seen no
posts from a lot of people for about 5-6 days now.
Strangely, though, I can see yours.

Just how many on here won’t be able to view posts by Google Groups users?
