Its a reference to Usenet back in 1993, its essentially when an online community has to deal with a never ending influx of new users. So think of this as Reddit before it got big/mainstream.

For sure, I also can’t believe reddit has much intrinsic value when it’s botted/astroturfed to oblivion… I think that tech savvy investors are aware of these issues and may just end up shorting the stock. No matter what someone’s making money off of this.
I wish they would add more context to their specs, like how some devs list resolution/fps targets.
Yeah that's basically it. Bots had overtaken Reddit too and just propagated that problem by re-posting posts/top comments.
Ah yeah so you've seen it all, that's awesome. I wasn't around when usenet was in its prime (on account of being roughly -2 years old).
