Young woman helping an old woman as she reminisces about the old web, "The web used to be open and distributed! Not closed and concentrated in the hands of a few companies!" The young woman, "Sure grandma, now let's get you to bed."

MUDs

I only heard about those in the late-90s when it seemed to be dying off. Were they like a telnet text adventure?

Pretty much, yeah. If you think of old school text adventure games and bring them to their multiplayer conclusion, you'd get an MUD.
