I guess I'm atypical, but I don't find the GG interface to be bad (even 
after the change 2 years ago).  I "grew up" in the Usenet environment, with 
readnews, rn, and the emacs interfaces to same (both Gosling and GNU) and 
still use a variety of newsreaders for the small number of groups I'm still 
active in. *And* I still use GG as the backup reader for those Usenet 
groups.

I've also used a variety of web forums (see the one for Beyond Compare at 
scootersotware.com, frex,which used vBulletin)  and I've use a couple of  
web archive interfaces to help with mailing lists (Mercurial and Mercurial 
Developers in particular).

*I AM VERY COMFORTABLE USING GOOGLE GROUPS.*

On the other hand, my opinion is probably worthless because I don't hate 
Windows 8.x or even Windows Vista.  I'm still using an old Fedora, so I 
might not be up to date on rants about Linux UX horrors.  I have yet to set 
up my Mint machine.

It appears that the original poster is the only one who can set tags.  Ok, 
maybe the moderators can play Deus Ex Machina with tags, but the rest of us 
can't add a tag ex post facto.
