alt.gopher isn't available on the news server you use? It is on
the one I'm using, with the last thread there being from 2020
titled "Anyone around?", and indicating that other news servers
have it already too (also see https://alt.gopher.narkive.com ).

As for the proposal, I guess it wouldn't hurt for Gopher content
discussing Gopher itself to be reposted to this group. But there
are other newsgroups for discussing Usenet and they can get much
more active than here, so prompting general discussion of Usenet
here might drown out Gopher-related discussion. Since alt.gopher
is completely dead though, it wouldn't really matter what people
started discussing there.
