    Would syspos please post a ballpark of the number of new subscribers on
    their servers since the google groupocalypse groupsspagheddon
    announcement? This information metric will be good for having as part
    of Usenet history.

    I hope you all are keeping track! My suspicion is that Usenet is
    certainly not dead and that subscriber numbers will prove that possibly thousands still lurk the network.

    According to those statistics, E-S has *fewer* new subscribers than at
    the same time a year ago.

    Nov to Dec 2023 2022
    new subscribers 100 300

    Dec to Jan 2023-2024 2022-2023
    new subscribers 200 1100

    Your content won't be google-able.
