If you have to have accounts, identifiers, and logins on a central
server it isn't decentralized.
It is perfectly feasible for each participant in your group to have an
nntp peer running. That's decentralized. However, it is not necessary
for everyone to run an nntp peer: those who are can permit others remote
access using newsreaders in the usual fashion.
