    It’s a term for insiders. My mother will never talk about “the fediverse.”

    The “Open Social Web” is a much better term. It tells you everything you need to know.

      A little too long and generic. I think Fediverse is fine as long as we treat it as a name and don’t force people to necessarily understand what it means. People understand names, they’re the most human thing there is

      It just sounds really dumb. The word “federation” was right there.
