Sorry, i get what the PLATO system is (was?), but I can't get what the IRATA.ONLINE is and how its related. Is it a revival of this PLATO., or a PLATO system, what's the cool thing about it? that you can get Apple II to connect to a service and stream ASCII?

Really, this video is not really descriptive, and question by @op stays.

https://irata.online/#features seems to cover it? It's a multi-user terminal system where you can log in, send text to other users, and run games and applications. It's not clear if the server software is available, but the links are to various client software for connecting to their service.

Sounds like the Mex language back in the BBS era.
