thrad ovvhrs#introductions #welcome #newpeople you have not joined "mastodon" today. you have joined a mastodon instance, but you're on an entire federated network including nodes running mastodon, pleroma, GNU/Social, and more.
i prefer to use that terminology to encourage cooperation between all our lovely fediverse networks.
for example:
"new to the fediverse, mastodon [if i'm talking about my frontend for example] is pretty sweet"
"anyone else on the fediverse straight" [the answer is no]
