Especially those of us who used to reach it by dialing directly into one of four lines ...when it was running on what...a 486? And it was the low-cost way to gain access to Usenet, which arrived via uucp every so often?

DTK 486/33, SCO Unix 3.2, Waffle BBS - The Cellar BBS, no shell; USR
Dual-Standard modems, five lines and growing. BBS is free; net news
(full feed) and net mail by subscription. $10/mo, $55/6-mo, or $90/yr.
Fancies itself to be more of a colorful "electonic community" than the
best plug into the net, and as such, it features a lively local message
base. But it also generally carries the latest Linux distribution,
just to prove it hasn't forgotten its hacker roots.
