Monochrome (www.mono.org) is a #TelnetBBS which is still active after over 30 years.
Giving it a little boost here to see if there's interest. So if you were a fan of the #BBS and the communities that they fostered, have a look.

@davoloid hi Dave 👋 Mono meant a lot to me and always will. I left when the shape of my life changed and so I wasn't sitting in front a screen all day, but I do miss it.

I miss having an online communty that is also an IRL community. Mono having meets was what made it so influential in my life. Plus the fact that we were all young then probably helped :o)

@xanna I think that was the case for most people, or at least what we did on the screen changed and that window into the community was not typically on PCs.
Was it you that did the work on gender representation in online communities, or am I confusing names?
