Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.

But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.

Give me that hopium guys! 💉

Ah shit, I'll eat my crow. I'm new here, sorry for the ill-informed jackassery

Please leave knee-jerk reactions on Reddit. There’s no reason to talk to people like that.

I'm really having hard time grasping what goes through people's minds when deciding to be so damn aggressive off the bat. We're all just trying to have a good time here.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it’s completely unnecessary. People in real life are rarely this rude off the bat so idk why some folks think it’s okay to become such an edgelord when they sit behind a keyboard. Do they not realize there’s human beings on the other side of the screen?

It's not a bad name. It's the fediverse, but for threaded conversation. The threadiverse nickname has been floating around far longer than Meta's rushed Twitter clone.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So Meta stole the name TOO? Can we as a collective open source community legally tell Meta to fuck off?

[–] static_motion 12 points 1 year ago

Bro, "thread" has been used in a forum context since online forums were created, way before Meta's existence.

Threadiverse predates threads I'm pretty sure. Reddit is composed of threads, reddit fediverse being threadiverse makes sense. Maybe less so now though.
