(moved from "Spam on comp.sys.transputer) to a more precise thread.
Since you Ke.. and we alas all are in the same boat here: the message is on the top here, see https://groups.google.com/g/comp.sys.transputer. I only have URL in Norwegian here, so you must find the URL for English. I was naïve enough to believe that comp.sys.transputer was _not_ a Usenet group. It sounds from Ke.. that it is. If so, somebody wiser than me should: (translated from Norwegian by Google) PRETTY FAST:
*What do you have to do?"
If you don't actively use Usenet content, you don't need to do anything. Current Usenet users must do two things before February 22, 2024 if they want to continue interacting with Usenet content:
1. Find a new Usenet client. There are a number of free and paid options – both online and app-based. To find a client, you can search for "How do I find a usenet text client" online.
2. Find a new public Usenet server. The new client you choose will likely have a default server or a set of selected options for you. If not, you can search for "public NNTP servers" to find a server.
Since Usenet is a distributed system, you don't need to transfer data. All the Usenet content you currently have access to on Google Groups should already be synced with the new server you choose. Once you have selected a new client and server, you can select the groups you are interested in again.

is another option, although installing a newsreader is likely a better
experience.
