    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

    Yup I personally always use threadiverse and love to use threadiverse.link instead of lemmyverse.link

    Maybe I missed something but never saw a problem with that name.

    Edit: wanted to add that voyager has also started to use threadiverse.link as a share option (i believe lemsha.re as well but that service shut down).

      Threadiverse is fine with me. Fediverse in general, but Threadiverse is more specific imo. We’re early on the Fedi, we get to make the rules! Square is blue! Up is left and right is forward. MUAHAHAHAHA! 😄

            I just say lemmy for all that zone, but happy to switch. Threadi huh. Bit awkward but I’m sure we’ll get used to it.

                  The only concern I’ve seen with the name is that Facebook named their thing “Threads”, and so it might be confusing for people familiar with that.

                  I still use the term 🤷

                      Ahhh that was the problem! Okay I kinda understand. But I think we can refuse to let that asshole company steal words like Meta, Face & Book, Threads, etc. and act as if that was their invention.

                      But yeah I just kept using threadiverse because I feel like everyone here understands exactly what it is and others use it too. If people wouldn’t I wouldn’t use it I guess 🙂

                      Edit: gonna start shortening that to TV so I can just tell everyone “saw that on TV”

                        I prefer forumverse. Or more inventive : Verse

                        On !fediverse@piefed.social i created flair to categorize :

                        • forum software : threadiverse
                        • media software as pixelfed, peertube, vernissage : mediaverse
                        • blog : fediblog
                          …

                        But i think it is confusing and do not help a lot 🥹

                              I get that. It’s like every political conspiracy is a “-gate”. But its a useful shorthand, and thats what the term needs.

                              Every time I explain it to someone, I roll my eyes a little at those terms, but thats what it’s called… It sounds so marketing. Trying to tell someone “join the Fediverse” feels like selling a cult, a little, lol

                              I may ask my wife if she’ll let me set up something for her to scroll other than TikTok, though. She’s not the type to dive into new stuff like this without good reason, but if I just go “here’s your app, all set up with stuff you’ll generally enjoy!” maybe it’ll drag her off that godawful site.

                                Sure, although those terms are buzzwords only, not marketing speak. Like blogiverse, definitely not marketing.

                                The marketing term the Social Web Foundation wants to put forward is “Open Social Web”, but that encompasses more than the threaded softwares (includes Mastodon, Peertube, etc.)

                                      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.

                                        Gemini is both the Google AI and the network protocol, it seems clear which one you’re referring to depending on context

                                        To us maybe, as we already know what the fediverse is. To newcomers and people who haven’t really heard of it yet, it sounds like Threads and its associated software.

                                        I’ve been on here for about two years, and I’m pretty sure that you were here before me. This stuff is part of our everyday language, whereas most people haven’t heard of Lemmy, Piefed, or Mbin. They’ve all seen the ads for Threads though

                                          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

                                          We had some issues with the term “Threadiverse” when Meta’s Threads was on the rise and in public discourse. And people started confusing this with what Mark Zuckerberg does. But I think that toned down substantially. I think Threadiverse is a good term, we might as well try again and see if the confusion is still there. And I mean it’s a super niche term anyways to talk about a certain corner of a niche itself. So I guess it’s often embedded in a context and that’d help as well. I’d go for it. And the threads are the identifying mark of this place, so it fits.
