It depends on the group. Some are still fairly active. This group
not so much.

Lots of them, but it depends what you're interested in. You would have
to go through the newsserver list yourself looking newsgroups you would
like and see if they are active or not over a week or two.

This group, rec.arts.comics.strips, isn't extremely active, but
considering that substantially all the traffic in it deals with comic
strips rather than consisting of spam, it's doing reasonably well.

That's surprising. I haven't seen that on my news server.

So much of that crossposting was going on that I pretty much left, after
having been a regular here for many years. I just checked back in today after
a long absence and don’t see so much of it. Is it still a big problem?

Most of the cross-posting relates to comics I think,
lately XKCD & Pearls Before Swine..

I didn't say (or mean) that it was a problem - I've contributed to
drifted threads myself. I did want to point out that "substantially all
the traffic in [racs] deals with comic strips" isn't an accurate
reflection of recent traffic.

rec.arts.sf.written has won many awards for thread drift.
