Hello, I know that the fediverse contains many challengers to the walled garden approach of the main stream social media options. But, unless I miss comprehend, the fediverse isn't anything new, more a return to how things were in the the past. Case in point Newsgroups. Why aren't they mentioned in the same breath as Lemmy, kbin or Mastodon?

Same here! Which is a huge reason I actually enjoy lemmy, for the time being. It's a forum, complete with subforums, and decentralized!
