    I'm wondering:
    Shouldn't comp.sys.mac be comp.sys.apple.mac?
    " comp.sys.m6809 " comp.sys.mot.6809?
    " comp.sys.m68k " comp.sys.mot.68k?
    Just a thought.

    no "view source" (to download raw message with verbatim headers),
    but going back to "1986" is wayback machine level for an archive,
    so this website could still be useful for some usenet researchers

    I don't know of any such newsgroup, but I do think such a newsgroup
    would be useful, since so many people use social networks.

    Perhaps rec.networking.social?

    Well you could have both, one emphasising the social aspect, and the
    other the networking aspect.

    But Usenet users are so diminished that one that one group might
    suffice.

    This should be seen as a troll. There are 10s of thousands of
    newsgroups, the vast majority of which have failed. Yet "Yevgeniy S",
    who isn't known anywhere on Usenet for discussing this topic, wants a
    series of brand-new newsgroups.

    If the proponent can't be bothered to discuss the topic himself, that's
    a sure sign of a bad proponent.

    Have discussion first. If somehow there is enough discussion to warrant
    a separate newsgroup, then bring it up at that time, but there never
    will be as "Yevgeniy S" has no interest in starting discussion himself.

    "Doctor! No one is discussing this topic on Usenet!"

    "Start the discussion yourself."

    I think it best to start with a generic group, and only if traffic
    relating to a specific instance becomes overwhelming should more
    specific groups be set up.

    So, if there were a general ng called rec.networking.social that had
    low traffic, there would be no need to set up ngs for subsets like rec.networking.social.instagram

    That's never worked, not ever. Either Uaenet users are discussing a
    topic or they are not. New groups don't create new discussion. If there
    are truly users discussing these topics, they get to be consulted first
    if they want the proposed newsgroup.

    So, if there were a general ng called rec.networking.social that had
    low traffic, there would be no need to set up ngs for subsets like >rec.networking.social.instagram

    Then there would have been no need for the group in the first place.
