Like we’ve got Mastodon which is a microblog platform.
Lemmy/kbin which I guess you could call aggregators?
Then there’s the image and video platforms.
Is there a lexicon or terminology we’re using to describe the different types of platforms in the fediverse?
So you’re looking for a word that’s a descriptor for different types of social media e.g. aggregator vs video/image/audio hosting vs microblogging. The first word that comes to mind is that they might be different paradigms of social media?
Threadiverse for Kbin, Lemmy, and similar.

The United Federation of Platforms
Shaka, when the bird site fell.
Lemmy, his arms wide.
Reddit, his face black, his eyes red.
Kbin federated with Mastodon and lemmy
Well that’s three, there are at least 1200 more and that’s not including the YouTube and Instagram like sites that are, or could be, federated, and they all have slightly different feature sets depending on what software they’re running.
That’s what I’m talking about. A way to describe those feature sets in a word.
the 1200 number refers to a number of Lemmy’s instances. I doubt there are twelve hundred different Fediverse platforms.
