Way back in the 1970s/1980s, before the Fediverse, before the web, there was an even older open network: "bulletin board systems" or BBSes.

You can watch a multi-part documentary about the history of the BBS network at:

➡️ https://fedi.video/w/p/h6CMyFnbdPZXpaRpMCBKdk

The episodes are themed rather than chronological, so you can watch any episodes you want in any order.
