Google actually bought Deja archive in February of 2001, which included a collection of over 500 million Usenet newsgroups messages dating back to 1995.

That’s why my 1992 postings don’t show 😫

Do you know of any accessible UseNet service that goes back earlier?

I don’t want to subscribe to a feed, just a web interface with a small free usage policy would suffice.

Something like this?
