I still think a Usenet like service would be brilliant and it's a shame there isn't a Lemmy-like service that has that.
To clarify, what I mean is decentralised infrastructure (you go onto the news server you want) with shared content (ie the same was that every Usenet post ends up on every Usenet server, if that server carries that newsgroup) - it gives all the advantages of federalisation (don't like your server, just go to another, you lose little or nothing) without the disadvantages of unintuitive discovery and fragmentation.
