I just thought this might make a fun discussion thread for folks to chat about ideas and make silly pie jokes.
I'm curious to hear what folks think would be fun, or work well!

It's Lemmings not Lemmites, so keeping that same energy... Piefeedings? Piefeddings? I think Piefedders sounds better, though none of them are great.
However, Piefed does have fed in it like fediverse, so it's not a bad name, just hard to riff off of.

Threadiverse = the subset of the Fediverse based on threaded conversations, applies to Lemmy, PieFed, Mbin, also nodeBB and somewhat flarum
monogram@feddit.nl · 1 pts · 341d
Pamasich@kbin.earth · 2 pts · 341d
Why? "Threadiverse" has been used before Threads became a thing, and "thread" is a generic term that has existed for ages and doesn't belong to Meta.
OpenStars@piefed.social · 1 pts · 341d
Meta did try to make "Threads", but (a) it failed miserably and (b) use of that term on Lemmy predates Meta trying to steal it. We don't need to let them define us! And all the more so if there's no better word - the next runner up in polls iirc is Forumverse, but people vastly prefer Threadiverse.:-)

I was thinking about that too. And you know what? After taking part in Mastodon, then Lemmy, now PieFed and discovering PeerTube I now more identify as a Fediverse user than a user of one of the parts
Fediversling/Fediverser lacks an unofficial-official name too, btw ;)

The fact that you name dropped NodeBB (a good example), Flarum (which has no working federation), but did not mention Discourse (which has only partially working federation and limited threadiverse support) gives me the warm and fuzzies 🤣
OpenStars@piefed.social · 1 pts · 342d
I need to stop mentioning flarum, but every time I do someone chimes in with "but it's coming soon(TM)!" So I just say what's listed in !fediverse@piefed.social as if that were somehow official or something:-P.

In my opinion: Lemmy is the name of the network, Piefed is simply the best way of accessing the network. Thus, most Piefed users are still Lemmings.
OpenStars@piefed.social · 4 pts · 342d
Tbf ActivityPub is the name of the protocol, and Fediverse is the name of the network, though is too generic so many of us have taken to calling us the "Threadiverse", for threaded-based conversational format (Lemmy + Mbin + PieFed + nodeBB + flarum), as distinct from the user-centric Mastodon, the image-based Pixelfed, video-based Loops (not federated yet iirc), etc. Notably though, while it is not so easy, people can send messages between these e.g. from Mastodon to Lemmy (or PieFed) and vice versa.
