Seeing the words “old internet forums” and “2000s” together makes me weep as someone who was on BBS, Compuserve, Usenet, and Prodigy.
Eternal September was 30 years ago. Windows xp is 22 years old next month. It’s all old now.
There is not much difference in time between those two, old forums are 20 years old and Usenet perhaps 30 or less.
While most of us remember usenet from the 90s, it actually started in 1980, so that’s 43 years.
