It gets tiring to write Piefed/Lemmy/Mbin to call our part of the Fediverse, is Threadiverse now the accepted term?
-
Gemini is both the Google AI and the network protocol, it seems clear which one you’re referring to depending on context
Arguably the context is very similar - it makes it seem like Threads is part of the "Threadiverse". AFAIK it's not? The fact that I don't know is rather telling.
-
I used to say "Welcome to Lemmy" to new joiners, but nowadays quite a few of them join Piefed instance, having a generic term is easier
You can't follow Mastodon users from Lemmy or Piefed, using "Fedivers" seems too generic

Just call it Fediverse.
Fediverse can be part. Fediverse can be all. Fediverse is the all that federates with the bit. Fediverse ought. Fediverse will be. It's even on Poob. Poob will federate it for you. Poob will federate it for you.

It doesn't make sense to tell someone "Welcome to the Fediverse" when they join Piefed or Lemmy as they can't follow Mastodon or Sharkey users

!piefed_meta@piefed.social has nothing to do with the Meta company

I, uh, don't know what you're trying to say. I was talking about support for the ActivityPub protocol.

Except that, apparently you can? A recent post I made on Lemmy had replies from Mastodon accounts afaict

Interacting with Lemmy threads from Mastodon is easy, the inverse not so much

Lemmy and Mastodon can interact (yay federation!) but you can't follow microblog users from Lemmy.
Up until recently, communities couldn't follow other communities, because it's just not a "thing" Lemmy or Piefed do. Users follow communities, yeah?
Except NodeBB tries to have communities follow communities. :)

Yep only Mbin achieve that :3

NodeBB too :blush:

I was referring to this comment ( https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/21052151 )
And the word meta itself is used for meta communities on the Threadiverse which have nothing to do with Meta the company. Words existed before companies took them.

So you didn't mean to reply to me in the first place?

I did, I was making a comparison how comments words such as "meta" and "threads" shouldn't be owned by corporations

Whilst I agree that they shouldn't, it's a fact that Threads exists and, as far as I know, is not part of the Threadiverse but is in an adjacent space. To the point where I personally, someone involved in the Fediverse, am not sure whether it communicates with the "Threadiverse". Mastodon does, for example.
If we were talking about a family of phones called "Threads" then that wouldn't be all that confusing, but when it's another social app then it's a mess.

Is Zuck still using the term Threadiverse? If it was a one-off, then I'd write it off and take back the darn term.

@darrel_miller fingers crossed, we will be doing it more regularly!

@evan Argh. I will make it to one of these events. Tonight I am headed to Ottawa.

@Ruth_Mottram thank you Ruth 🙏

This is an ace introduction to the #Fediverse by @_elena - I'm learning lots from this too.
Especially the peertube stuff is helpful. I have a channel and I don't know how to use it properly really either...

@_elena ❤️
I saw that you had a slot, but I was not sure if you will be there or have a remote session!
