I was cringing because I think the comparison between reddit and late usenet is accurate, and I don't like that. Usenet was different at one point, that went away, and the cringe is because newsgroups looked a lot like subreddits by the end. You couldn't have had early 90s NANAE on reddit, and I don't think there is any public forum that is in the ballpark now. I should probably add that I'm saying this as a fan of and avid user of reddit. I'm unhappy about what we lost as Usenet wound down, not complaining about reddit.
