I’ve begun to wonder about this question. There’s nothing implied in the existence of the fediverse that it will include every site, and there’s nothing implied in the existence of every non-fediverse site which would stop them from forming their own fediverse. One could technically say email providers have already achieved this, though this only really applies to email providers which doesn’t make it as useful as the fediverse we know and love. Are there actually other fediverses out there?
You must log in or register to comment.
I’m in another fediverse called Jeremy. He goes to a different school though, so you wouldn’t know him.
Jeremy Bearamy?
But I still don’t understand the dot above the i, is it Tuesday, July or never??
In multi-fediverse theory, there are infinite fediverses where any and every possibility of fediverse exists.
So there’s a version of Hexbear out there that are acual socialists and not facist bootlickers?
No, there’s also the good alternate Fediverse where I don’t have a goatee.
So Blue sky?
ZeroNet? Tor Network? I2P?
Yes. Truth Social is a reskinned Mastodon that only federates with itself. I imagine there are other cases similar to that.
Tangentially related idea is how many sub-fediverse are their. Surly u could have 2 sets of instances that have all defederated the other group but are all federated with their own group.
We kinda had that on Lemmy until Hexbear decided to federate with Lemmy.World.
Also, I think Beehaw.org doesn’t federate with anyone, but it’s been awhile since I last checked
I can posts from beehaw on .ee
Do you get replies from anyone on Beehaw? Or is it only other people from lemmy.ee?
Beehaw defederates from most other instances. That means users on other instances can see and comment on their content, but the only users that can see those interactions are other users from the same instance.
Yeah federation with them is happening https://beehaw.org/instances
