minus-squarepoVoqlinkfedilink3•2 years agoThe fediverse has a bit of a discoverability problem though. It could be part of the solution I guess, but right now it isn’t.
minus-square@toneverends@lemmy.mllinkfedilink1•2 years agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet used to be the thing before forums took over. Every decent ISP would host a news server for their users. As a user, you’d dial in, sync your newsreader software, and later whenever you want you can go through all the threads in the groups you’re subscribed to and respond at your leisure. Your posts go out next time you sync up.
