While the second paragraph has been slightly debunked, the first paragraph is an interesting idea I've underappreciated/neglected until now.
What do you think? Perhaps this is easier/more-scaleable than having federated instances with decentralised and often complex governance?
There are probably people who still say kbin is irrelevant today. Things can change. All it would take is some free Usenet web interfaces like fedverse has. Usenet is older than Fedverse but still does certain things better, like automatically merging together all similarly named groups from every server. And the newsreaders are much better at showing you only what is new.
