The rapid rise of Lemmy and Kbin, dubbed the ‘threadiverse’, have altered the dynamic in the fediverse. A look at how this changes the structure and the dynamic of the fediverse at large.
Do not think it is first. I have been seeing it fairly often since I joined a coupled weeks ago. Nice term though. Not sure where it started.
Yeah @maegul was the first to suggest it a few weeks ago. One of the reasons I like the term is how communal and organic it grew; it was suggested in a thread that was specifically about brainstorming for better names. Threadiverse got thrown in there as a potential option, and its been gaining organic usage ever since.
It was before it leaked that Meta’s product will most likely be called Threads tho, which will be hilariously confusing. Not sure if the term threadiverse survives that.
