Anꞇóin Ó B.<p>- ...and it can also might refer to the Mastodon instance software itself. The code that has to run on a server somewhere.</p><p>I hope the documentation for Mastodon (Instance Software) is absolutely excellent because I expect the first time searching for a solution to a problem with it is hellish.</p><p>6/?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/WhatTheFuckEvenIs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatTheFuckEvenIs</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mastodon</span></a></p>
Anꞇóin Ó B.<p>- The Fediverse, as judged by what is visible to any Threads† user oblivious to... a lot. Including the concept of everyone on the Fediverse disgusted with the idea of federating with Threads.</p><p>† There will not be a comparable thread of posts on the naming of Threads. Anyone who approves of that choice of name, or would play Devil&#39;s Advocate in the matter is someone I hope to never encounter in my life.</p><p>5/?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/WhatTheFuckEvenIs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatTheFuckEvenIs</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mastodon</span></a></p>
Anꞇóin Ó B.<p>- A like-minded group who&#39;ll (in practice) equate users and moderators of select Fediverse instance software that isn&#39;t Mastodon† as deserving of greater suspicion, open prejudice, or blocking.</p><p>† If you don&#39;t think this happens perhaps first check with Pleroma/Akkoma users and instance admins before dismissing this one.</p><p>4/?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/WhatTheFuckEvenIs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatTheFuckEvenIs</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mastodon</span></a></p>
Anꞇóin Ó B.<p>- A famous metal band from the US that has been around since 2000.</p><p>- Every kind of Fediverse instance software THAT ISN&#39;T MASTODON, but is presumed to be so by a user on a mastodon instance because of how the UI doesn&#39;t explicitly distinguish such posts as different.</p><p>- Any of the organisations or funding structures connected to the development of the instance software that is called Mastodon</p><p>3/?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/WhatTheFuckEvenIs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatTheFuckEvenIs</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mastodon</span></a></p>
Anꞇóin Ó B.<p>- The Mastodon instance software&#39;s merits/demerit (compared to other instance software OR apps)</p><p>- Any social app with a forgettable name/branding that uses an elephant icon</p><p>- The Fediverse (a lot of blogs and journalists have made no distinction, I expect slop peddlers treat them interchangeably)</p><p>- OR just most visible differences between the Fediverse and their expectations of Like Twitter Without The Suck that they felt they were promised</p><p>2/?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/WhatTheFuckEvenIs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>WhatTheFuckEvenIs</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mastodon</span></a></p>
