Stoked to be a part of the new community. Still have trouble explaining to my friends exactly what the fediverse is in simple terms without making it seem more complicated than it is
Reddit/insert enshittified service here: data stored by corporation
Fediverse: data stored by the community itself
Threadiverse: above, but presented like Reddit threads.
Why it's important: takes power back from FAANG and gives it to the people; allows you to store your social media with people you trust, including just yourself; can be studied or forked by users
I know I've left out a lot of details, but that's why it's a simplification ๐.
Power to the people!
Reddit but with email thing :)
What email thing?
Say I have Gmail and you have Outlook. I can email you, you can email me, and everything will come across just fine. But I can't use my Gmail (lemmy.world) credentials to login at Outlook (lemmy.australia, for a random example), and you can't use your Outlook credentials to login in at Gmail. Like that, but all of your emails are public.
It's like a thousand different reddits who can all communicate with each other, and post on each other.
Other people like the countries analogy. I am a citizen of my country, but I can visit other places and speak with people who live elsewhere.
Email is also federated.
