Does anyone think that the Fediverse would make a much better next phase for the web then all of this Metaverse bull?
I'd much rather see sites like Lemmy, PeerTube, and Mastodon see widespread adoption then the dystopian cyberpunk fever dream in the head of Zuckerburg. Did you not read the novel dude? It's a freaking warning! That's like Jeff Bezos reading Fahrenheit 451 and going "holy crap dude, gotta make that a reality like, yesterday!" I want the Fediverse, not the Metaverse! Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

Slightly unrelated but I feel like there has been such a proliferation of -verses from the Metaverse to the MCU that I’ve developed a negative association with all -verses as a marketing ploy despite my love for the Fediverse specifically. While probably not a realistic replacement, I think it’s fun when people sometimes use “the Federation” as it makes us sound like a network of allied planets engaged in intergalactic combat in a pulpy sci-fi series.
I agree, let's go full Star Trek and call it the "Federation of United Communities of Earth."
u want sum fuce?
I like that! I've called it the Federated sites before instead of the Fediverse.
Agreed! If we all just start calling it "the Federation", maybe it'll stick. Also, i hate that "Fediverse" makes me think of Kevin Federline.
