Did you ever hear of groups.google.com? About 30Y older than reddit, the original Usenet groups system started in the late 70s ...

Google has completely messed up the archive. When they first took over, I could find my earliest posts from 1981 or so. Last time I checked, my earliest post was listed as some time in the early 2000's. Pretty sad, really.

Google groups is from early 2000s. It just hosts old usenet archives.
