Ask HN: What was it like in the era of BBS before the internet?

I was too young to have experienced the era of BBS so I was curious about a few things 1) What was your typical routine for using BBS? How often would you log on and check it? What program would you use? 2) How did you even discover servers in the first place when you first started out? 3) Were there big popular servers that everyone used or was it fragmented? 4) What was the general vibe of discussions like back then? How was it different than now? 5) What kind of programming/tech things did people discuss? What were the hot topics?
