Usenet is unmoderated. Once you post it, it sticks forever. We could probably get one of the independent providers to give free access to a new newsgroup. Anyone have any thoughts?

I’ve used Usenet for my content needs for years because it’s so fast and risk free. I think we could also use it for our community discussions.

    Do you mean a BBS that could communicate with the Fediverse via the Activitypub protocol?

      I was serious. Conceptually it makes a lot of sense to do, I’ve thought about a number of CLI clients, but like a federated BBS from someone with the experience to do it right would be… just… chef’s kiss

      I’m of the wrong era. I got the tail-end of using them and wasn’t developing until well into the WWW days.
