It is better to use a mail client because web versions tends serve ads.
One of the reasons why Microsoft is shutting down their newsgroups is
because they can serve ads web forums.

The web versions do some potential harm to newsgroups. Newcomers are
intimated by newsgroups as the posts seem to be linked to an e-mail
address. Newcomers think they will have to expose their e-mail addresses
if they have to participate in newsgroups. In a web forum, they think
they only have to expose their account username, not their email address.
