Usenet was never really “federated”. All servers mirror slightly different hierarchies (with the free ones usually focusing on text and the commercial ones focusing on binary files).
I’ve been a happy user of Eternal September (the name alone was awesome enough!) for quite some time now.
Thanks! Was it always not federated? I thought it was, in is halcyon days. Might be just my faulty memory though.
Maybe there were days when all Usenet servers had all hierarchies. I’m probably too young.
