Me trying to explain decentralized social media to anyone who will listen

Sus... where do the beans come in? (This seems like it would greatly increase the difficulty of the no poop challenge!?)
Fixed #7 to include the beans

There's definitely a Fediverse. It's a collection of instances with different links to each other determined by each instance and further filtered by users. Just because a particular instance isn't federated with another instance doesn't mean both of them aren't part of the Fediverse.
People will definitely be confused if you explain it badly. They might still be confused if you explain it properly, but in this case that's on you.

Rules of the Fediverse:
- You do not talk about the Fediverse.
- You do NOT talk about the Fediverse.
- If a user says "disengage", goes limp, or taps out, the shitposting is over.
- As many people shitposting together as you want.
- One dogpile at a time.
- Eat the rich, fuck cars.
- Memes will go on as long as they have to - including beans.
- If this is your first time at the Fediverse, you have to do the no poop challenge.
Does anyone have an archive of the no poop challenge?

I hate the entire fediverse and instance jargon. It is off putting to mainstream users.
The Internet has always been "federated" with "instances". Yet no one ever said, "What email instance do you use."
What alternative terminology would you use to describe the fediverse and instances?

Server or provider. The same terminology that has been used for newsgroups and email for 45 years.

Yay! Although now be careful, bc once beans have been invoked, jeans are sure to follow... (and then Taylor Swift's jet, pondering orbs, and so on, long may the cycle continue:-).

That's like saying webrings didn't exist, only discrete websites.
There's no such thing as a murder, you only have a specific group of crows

I blame @Blaze@feddit.org! He's always breaking them
(Seriously, he does some amazing job promoting this side of the Fediverse.)
