Some comp.* groups get reasonable traffic even today although naturally it's mostly the same regulars. And I know of at least a couple of alt.* and rec.* groups that are worth checking on occasion. And there are some others that are kept alive through google groups traffic.

And then there is GMANE.

The comp.* hierarchy seems the most likely to have activity. It appears to me that comp.lang.ada has current discussions: https://groups.google.com/g/comp.lang.ada
