The lemmyverse sounds perfect, but it ignores alternatives like kbin etc. It would be better if we didn’t end up with the situation we have with Mastodon where people assume Mastodon is the fediverse.
So, what do we call this little niche in the fediverse?
Communiverse? FediGroups?

Fediverse. Also I hate that mastodon is seen as the fediverse. I had to explain to someone like they were a 5 years old I was using pleroma and they kept saying that no, I didn’t understand, we’re on mastodon. He didn’t get the concept at all.
I wish there was a unified document / webpage / video that put all of the info into an easy to understand format. I understand the fediverse now but it was confusing until it clicked. If there was resources that boiled it all into layman’s terms, I think there would be higher adoption and the fediverse itself would really take off
You know what, I was planning to make a channel, like, videos and stuff. Might make a video explaining this as my first project.

Orr … a catchy portmanteau … “Threadiverse”?!
Fediverse + Threads + Reddit
Would it be accurate to say anything that implements ActivityPub and communicates with other things using ActivityPub are part of the Fediverse?
@menturi @raccoon There is a bunch of other protocols other than ActivityPub who are also considered part of the fediverse: Diaspora, Zot, Streams, etc.
In fact ActivityPub wasn’t always the main protocol of the fediverse, it used to be OStatus. Mastdon was first build on top of OStatus before switching to ActivityPub.
But nowadays ActivityPub is by far the most used one.
