I've seen Feddit around to I'm not sure how I feel about it.
-Fediread? And we could distinguish the others aspects of the fediverse servers: -Fediblog : Mastodon, Pleroma, etc. -Fediphoto: Pixelfed -Fedivideo: Peertube
Just call it Lemmy people need a simple name and Lemmy is fun to say
It's fun until people bring up that the main devs political positions are debatable https://github.com/dessalines/essays/blob/main/socialism_faq.md#whats-going-on-with-the-uyghurs
And I said debatable because I have no strong opinion on the matter. That would make me a lib for some people, a leftist for others, I don't really care.
What I've seen is that argument is regularly brought up by detractors of the platform, which is why I always insist on saying that Piefed and Mbin are compatible and managed by other development teams
If someone is putting their manifesto on GitHub you can safely just disregard everything they say as crackpot nonsense tbh
We're on Lemmy. We are Lamingtons.

if I say "nerd social media" my gf know exactly what I'm talking about
Social net.
Two words everyone understands. Also the two ideas that make the fediverse what it is.
That's... really cool actually 😎
But is it perhaps too generic?
Also that sounds like a replacement for Fediverse rather than Threadiverse/Forumverse.
Still, social.net would be a great name for a new Fediverse instance? It almost kinda is already, in discuss.online.:-)
Thready
McThreadface
Amazing
The good internet
The good internet = TGI
TGIF = Thank ~~god~~ it's federated

Threadiverse is a terrible name, the most immediate word association is Threads, ostensibly a large corporate competitor, and the most immediate search result is a geeky/nerdy tshirt/merch company.
Better names?
Fuck uh... I dunno.
Lemmyverse
Lemmy and Friends
Reddit Asylum Seekers Club (RASCL?)

I generally don't. I don't find it to be a useful grouping to reference or discuss.
Try piefed.social
Try Discuss.online
Try beehaw.org
Try programming.dev
I'm always referring to one, never the group.
I wouldn't point them to Beehaw though, their segregated nature and difficult onboarding process make it less welcoming for newcomers to the Fediverse.
lemmy.blahaj.zone is a better choice for people who want LGBTQ friendly spaces.
I think this is a great illustration of my point. I like the culture beehaw.org has established more than what lemmy.blahaj.zone has encouraged. And I don't particularly care about "the fediverse". I care about the online communities I engage with.
Everyone is different and I make my recommendation based on what I think the person I'm making recommendations to would like most.

I’ve taken a liking to threadiverse, though I think it might confuse some people given Meta’s Threads and Metaverse, people might assume it’s a mix of that.
