Context: I made a poll on PieFed about the new post flairs (so if you are one of the few hundred people who have a PieFed account, follow that link and answer there). Unfortunately Lemmy has neither polls nor post flairs, so this post is to open up the discussion to the wider Fediverse, or rather the subset of it that encompasses Lemmy + Mbin + PieFed, which is called... what exactly?

Is Threadiverse too traumatic & tainted by association with Meta's (all but entirely defunct) Threads? Is The Verse too cool/poetic/nerdy (but niche) to be understood? I highly advise against Lemmyverse bc mainstream normal people are far less tolerant of tankies than we who are here are willing to put up with. Simply listing the software available sometimes is the best option - like the Interstellar app supports all of Lemmy + Mbin + PieFed, but most support at best 1 or 2 of those - but usually is too long to say and does not roll off the tongue, plus will just keep growing as time goes on. Is Forumverse thus the least bad of the available options, or perhaps you have a better idea? πŸ’‘

Anyway, the start to a listing:

  1. Threadiverse
  2. Forumverse
  3. (The) Verse
  4. Lemmy + Mbin + PieFed
  5. Something else?

Except they still don't care, and resent you for edumacating them. Whatever you say, they "win". Welcome to the post -information age.

Later: why didn't you do the thing I asked?

The secret is: it's always your fault.

I like to think that he forgets, keeps trying and then makes a new post about it

I'm not sure why they chose the title that they did though.

Oh hell naw. I'm maintaining my sanity by letting Jon Stewart tell me all about it afterwards:-).

(The title you see below mine is the wording chosen by the OP of the full post - I hope I do not cause offense, but I cannot control it showing up here as it is linked.)

Roughly one year ago, you say? Gee, I wonder what could possibly have happened roughly one year ago, hrm? Can't really think of anything particularly memorable that happened roughly one year in the past... [them, OP and all the commenters]

Omg I understood every word of that - should I be worried now? :-P

Sorry for misinformation - see comment below.

the rhetorical question: β€œAre you better off relative to previous times? Housing leads the list of things where the answer to that question today for many people is: β€˜No, I’m not better off.’”

There, now you've read the article.

I mean, Trump is also defending genocide too though...

So the law would demand it, but the "trust me bro, I got yo back" defense says to ignore what the law actually says?

Okay, I think I will.:-P
