      Yeah, Usenet is what my brain mapped Lemmy to. You get your feed and post through your server. You read posts from others on other servers. Each local server decides what feeds it will carry.

      Of course, there’s no central hierarchy for the communities like Usenet had.

        When I had the realisation I thought it would be a great way to explain Lemmy to people, but immediately realised that I’d then have to explain usenet to them first 👴🏻
