In the last 3 days I've been paying attention to r/all, expecting several posts about it and...

Wasn't expecting the website to literally shut down nor to monopolize r/all, because 3rd party users are the minority, but I hoped for more than whatever this was.

I was using usenet a bit back then. I actually found myself debating stuff on usenet by going to Google groups and searching for my name. Have to say, I was expecting to be embarrassed to read it all again, but it wasn't too bad. What I wrote still makes sense to me now 30 years later. I didn't expect that.
