I do not think is an option between above or underground but between,
open/decentralized vs closed/abusived/paywalls/centralized  the internet
is all above ground, is not that I'm suggesting to use TOR/i2p etc that
I can see how people can say is "underground" ;), 7 years a go people
will said the same about mastodon and the fediverse and there are
millions of people using it, yes like usenet is not a company so they
not going to bomb you with marketing, paid news on mass media, and paid
deviced/people using it on movies(yes apple and microsoft do pay movies
to show their stuff) etc but as usenet is having a comeback the internet
is changing back to normal(decentralized) yes of course you can not
expect the people that are not tech and use their phone(not an actual
real computer with a keyboard) to actually have any interest on
non-discord options but you will be surprised how fast things change
sometimes, when discord block russians 8 months a go or so revolt.chat
had a influx of thousands of users (not just russians, is because the
russians and their guild mates non-russians) all were forced to find
alternatives and revolt.chat is the best option for an open platform for
gamers. I myself prefer usenet/lemmy/forums but I do admit we have our
collective on Matrix spaces so we can watch movies/documentaries
together and I can help new people coming into computer security etc
live with out having to use discord/facechat/zoom and all those evil
platforms, and you will be surprised when people have an intereset how
they will actually install "element"(is the easiest one for them) to
join us to learn offensive security etc, and then they stay because they
like the platforms but I guess you are right people will not use this
"underground" since you called this way, platforms with out a good
motive first... heck Im happy that usenet is having a comeback can't
complaint, we got rid of google now we just need less trolls :D :D 

PD: sorry for my English. 

Best regards
Happy Hacking
