[manton]I’ve been wanting to write a blog post about why I dislike the term “fediverse”… It implies some kind of special layer above the web instead of using the actual web as intended. Maybe I’m being too nitpicky about it?
[aciccarello]I think it's a fair criticism in some respects. Still, I think there's some benefit to the "branding" of saying that something works with ActivityPub.
[tantek]“Brands” have abused/diluted the word “community” like this for at least a decade, ever since hiring a “community manager” became a thing. Maybe early 2000s?
[aciccarello]Are there any parallels to draw for IndieWeb protocols? I'm hesitant to use the term "Webmention" heavily on my site because I don't expect people to know what that means.
[tantek]aciccarello, yeah, there should be no need to use "Webmention" in any UI text, because it's better to name the specific things like comments, likes, etc.

[aciccarello]The webmention wiki page feels very technical. Is there a page to point less-technical people to as an explanation of "What is a webmention?"
aaronpki think this is one of the big differences between the fediverse and indieweb tools, "fediverse" tends to imply a complete end-to-end experience that is similar to how people expect twitter to work. "indieweb" is much more building blocks choose your own adventure
barnabyI want to expand on the atomic feature-specific tests which it already does, and additionally add a mode where you put your homepage URL in and it scans your site for everything it can find, listing things it detected and suggesting next steps
barnabyI imagine there’s a range of different support for low-level features which is considered “on the fediverse” e.g. from a minimum of sending content to followers all the way up to supporting everything including obscure details like mastodon’s custom Move activity for changing instances
barnabybut I expect most people would define it as something like “can be followed+sends content to followers, can read incoming content from other people”

[KevinMarks] fediverse predates AP, it was the gnusocial network originally

barnaby I began to collect additional ideas and issues at https://github.com/indieweb/indiewebify-me/issues so feel free to add to that if there are specific things you think would be useful
