The Fediverse and classical Usenet are so similar IMO. I think Usenet is just so old that nobody outside of pirates is familiar with it.

I completely agree with this and I think it’s because of the legal issues it avoids. I’m not a lawyer, but if I’m not mistaken, the entire fediverse doesn’t take a hit if a single server is a bad actor. Whereas sites like Reddit and Twitter need to defend themselves based on the content users generate.
nginx is like, the gold standard. it’s performant as heck. the issues are likely a culmination of many small sub-optimal pieces.
