A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.

Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

The lemmyverse sounds perfect, but it ignores alternatives like kbin etc. It would be better if we didn't end up with the situation we have with Mastodon where people assume Mastodon is the fediverse.

So, what do we call this little niche in the fediverse?

Communiverse? FediGroups?

I really like how this addresses the format of the content, you get my vote ❤️

Yea, and it retains "fediverse" in it too. Not to love my own creation too much, but I'm liking it the more time I spend with it ... I'll probably start using it all over the place now LOL.

Importantly, it's not just Lemmy and /kbin, there are other thread or forum based platforms out there too (See, eg @mariusor@metalhead.club and their work). Advocating for them all with a single umbrella term surely helps.

Also, after a quick check there are some domains available too.
