What do you usually call it?

@hiker @Huubje @evan if we’re being pedantic here, then Outlook is a bad example. A good example would be using the word “escalator” instead of “moving stairs”.
For non-tech people, the chance of the word “Mastodon” ringing a bell is much higher than “Fediverse”.
In day-to-day interpersonal communication the goal is to be understood, not to be as precise as possible.
@broadway_lamb @hiker @evan it's also a matter of not scaring away "normal people" and having a pleasant conversation. Most people don't give a rat's arse about the technical merits of platforms they use. I instead mention the aspects people can relate to, such as the focus on actual social interaction and it's lack of influencers.

@evan You forgot option 5, that some people subconsciously view it as: Exploitable Resource.

@evan can we really call it the fediverse if Roger Federer isn’t an active member?

fedi and #SocialWeb. shocked that so few use SW.
maybe I should use a different term tho since I don't want us thinking of it as separate. imo it's an attention layer for the web. any digital work we publish should be boostable. when that mindset takes hold, the closed platforms will seem anachronistic.

@evan Mastodon if I'm only referring to Mastodon. Fediverse if referring to any applicable app

@BlippyTheWonderSlug this is the best so far

@hiker @evan @broadway_lamb it's not up to me to do anything. Based on the little interaction I have had with you, it would be wise to take note when people are having otherwise pleasant conversations.
