Newsgrouper's source is Eternal September which currently does not have
older articles due to some technical issues.
So currently I assume you will not find anything older there.

(using Tor Browser 14.0)
https://newsgrouper.org.uk/news.software.readers/search

ind articles in news.software.readers
Including this Text: Matching this Pattern:
In the Subject In the From (Author) In the References

i tried "find articles" in this group's search window using default
settings ("including this text"/"in the subject") and it found this:

From: Colin Macleod <user7@cmacleod.me.uk.invalid>
Newsgroups: news.software.readers
Subject: Newsgrouper - a web interface to Usenet (text only)

tried "find articles" again for a randomly-selected older article
nearly twenty years old (2005/02/23) and newsgrouper found it too:

From: Eddie <edimodric@makni.inet.hr>

newsgrouper seems like dejanews v2.0! (hopefully the troll farm bosses
don't end up doing to newsgrouper what they so ruthlessly did to deja)
