Has anyone considered emulating Usenet with separate relays addresses for each newsgroup? i.e myrelay.tech.bitcoin, myrelay.tech.linux

Is there a NIP that would be better suited for this?

Would be sweet to use with #Jumble

I don't know what Usenet is exactly, but I imagine you can pretty much do that today and it wouldn't even be hard.

It was a decentralized community network of topic-focused servers that shared data between a user’s home server and peers. It’s how we learned cool things before the web.

The first time I talked about Nostr to nostr:npub17uhxst5se65cceh40a54gmtr2zpkehnc7ku2qf38v740d3g6lpns97h5f8 he mentioned it reminded him of FidoNet.

usenet with nncp “sneaker net” capability ❤️

We need to go back

100%.

I'm really looking forward to relays like that.
