At the time, I had used/tried out the following OSes

  - BeOS 4.5 (including some beta versions)
  - BeOS 5 (including some beta versions)
  - Windows NT 4.0
  - OS2/Warp
  - Windows 95 (and it's service releases) (including beta versions)
  - Windows 98 (and it's service releases) (including beta versions)
  - PC-DOS
  - MS-DOS with DosShell
  - MS-DOS with Windows 3.11
  - Whatever old version of MacOS was on the school computers
  - Slackware
(might have some dates wrong)

I was also on mIRC and downloading from newsgroups regularly.

I think many ISP's would give you guides about using email/newsgroups back then as those services were considered required for an ISP. TUCOWS was super popular for this newfangled WinSOCK software (TUCOWS stands for The Ultimate Collection Of WinSOCK Software). I remember testing how fast the first consumer cable internet connections were by downloading from them.

You are right for most people that stuff was probably obscure.

I have been a Technical Team Lead for the last 7+ years. I am looking for a similar role. I have mainly been focused on full stack/devops web, but have worked on a few iOS apps and managed the Unreal/Unity VR team at my previous employer.

This seems pretty straight forward, reject the PR's with detailed responses until they are of acceptable quality. Doing so might slow momentum with the project in the short term but should overall make everything faster. Just be clear about WHY you are rejecting the PR's and the quality you expect.
