c/fediverse · by ytg@feddit.ch · 2yWhat is "feddit", really? Many Lemmy instances have "feddit" in their name. Is that just "federated reddit" or am I missing something? 51 points · 6 comments · view on lemmy.world

Yeah, you answered yourself there. "Federated Reddit"

Pretty sure it was just meant as a tongue-in-cheek reference to reddit.

Yup! It's just a joke referencing reddit, that's all there is to it as far as I know.

I've always read it as a mix of "Federated Reddit" and "Fed up with Reddit".

Is that why it's called "FEDiverse"?
