Here's an idea for my fellow Lemmings, Piefedians and others, about a fun little challenge we could run in the month of September, to encourage a greater variety of posts across our communities with help from people who usually lurk or only occasionally comment. Each person would score themselves on an attempt to make 10 contributions across some defined categories in a month. What do you think?

Can I ask why you didn't use Fediverse instead of threadaverse? I think the idea is great, but it makes me think of Meta.

The Threadiverse is the thread-based subset of the Fediverse (primarily Lemmy, Piefed, and Mbin).

I know, but Meta ruined that name IMO.

I use Threadiverse to mean Lemmy Piefed Kbin and similar part of the Fediverse, nothing to do with Meta. I selected this terminology to differentiate it from microblogging platforms like Mastodon, though they are absolutely welcome to participate by posting to Lemmy and Piefed communities. With character limits and other structural design differences I suppose it is just a harder challenge. If you have suggestions for another name to describe topic-based online socializing I'm all ears.

Through the 10th proposed category, I'm hoping to make people aware of that connection to the wider Fediverse with links to Masto, PeerTube etc.

Keep using it, I use it too.

I would just use Fediverse since it's your ultimate goal to include them anyway. It would be great if they joined in the challenge in their own way anyway.

The name threadyverse is much older that metas threads.
