Fediverse

[go] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse
- [quote] The Fediverse (a portmanteau of "federation" and "[universe]") is an ensemble of federated (i.e. interconnected) servers that are used for web publishing (i.e. social networking, microblogging, blogging, or websites) and file hosting, but which, while independently hosted, can communicate with each other. On different servers (instances), users can create so-called identities. These identities are able to communicate over the boundaries of the instances because the software running on the servers supports one or more communication protocols which follow an open standard.
The [agora] tries to be a prosocial member of the fediverse.

- It will offer up [agora protocol] to the ecosystem or whichever open protocol is useful to others.

I use [mastodon] through the tusky, [pinafore] and [social.coop] interfaces.

I wonder if the [fediverse] name can work for a wide audience: https://twitter.com/flancian/status/1350582002454388737
