A lot of people from Reddit refuse to come here due to the association with tankies, as evidenced in the name Lemmy.
Also PieFed has little to do with Lemmy, except being interoperable with it, like K/Mbin. And Sublinks will introduce newer even more complicated terminology as in “the instance formerly using Lemmy, now having switched over to Sublinks”:-).
Anyway we already have both Lemmy and Fediverse, so the purpose of this third name is to represent the not-just-Lemmy portion of the Fediverse. Threadiverse is a horrible name… but the only one people seem willing to use. Forumverse?
Threads is dead, maybe we should finally just let it go? Oh, and use of Threadiverse predated that existing in any case. It’s solidly our term, not theirs… if we want it.

Seems like quite a link to be honest
