Welcome!
Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.
And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome 🤟😁

I use Fediverse as threads is tied to meta
When I hear threadiverse I think of Mastodon and Bluesky
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.
!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.
I was referring to this comment ( https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/21052151 )
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.
If you count Mastodon, then Threads does indeed communicate with the Threadiverse. Here on Mbin, I can find federated accounts from there, like this totally random guy which do have actual posts. So looks like everything is federating over well.
They do not, at this moment. The moment you see a Facebook Threads user comment here, you'll be sure everyone will be talking about this.
My confusion and uncertainty was the point. It wasn't a question.
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.
I've no idea, but I know Threads still exists. Beyond that I don't know what they're up to and what the state of play is in terms of Fediverse integration.
They chose well in terms of trying to poison the well.
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.
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
Which other word do you suggest using?
I have no idea. I just think that, unfortunately, threadiverse is going to be linked to Threads, whether we want it to be or not :(
They try to stole pour vocabulary. one more reason to keep it alive.
