with the federated nature of the verse, do we need a name for a single contributing platforms users?.. maybe.

you have kids using only 'apps' who barely know what the lemmy platform does, because all they know is the app theyre using.... you could have magazines that have zero lemmy users contributing, because the content and its users are interacting from different, compatible fediverse platforms.

it gets somewhat muddy

ive been noodling on what we should call users of the fediverse as a whole

I see some use of "Fedizen".

I'd like to have a term for someone using specifically the "Reddit-alike" Fediverse platforms, like kbin, mbin, lemmy, etc. "Threadiverse" has been used for that, but searching, don't think that "threadizen" has been used for that.

How about just Feds? I have to admit that would amuse me somewhat.

We're literally the Feds.

The name glows too brightly for my taste.
