    Usenet lost out to the convenience and better styling options available on Web 2.0. Not because of it’s users.

      Perhaps, but my personal experience was that Usenet was well on its way to being a dumpster fire of trolls, creeps, and spammers before the Web 2.0 technologies were more than a glimmer in anyone’s eyes.
