Comment on Threads is officially starting to test ActivityPub integration
atocci@kbin.social 9 months agoI've been under the impression people started using the term threadiverse to describe the Lemmy/Kbin side of the fediverse because we exist in Reddit style threads and interaction with microblog style fediverse posts is obtuse at best. We're practically in a separate bubble over here, and that was the cause of the new term.

I hadn’t heard it once until threads started up. I didn’t join until the great migration, so maybe earlier people used it, but I had only seen fediverse to describe it.

I think FediDB coined the term. It definitely existed before Threads had an official name though.

I don’t disagree because I don’t know. Regardless, I hadn’t seen anyone use it until threads started up.

Even then though, people only use it to describe this part of the fediverse, which Threads won't be a part of.
