Do you think it's a good idea to create a term like the "Jabberverse" to use with people?
eg. Instead of saying "use any app which uses the Jabber/XMPP protocol", say "Use a Jabberverse app". Much more natural and intuitive.
I think this could be very useful, like "Fediverse" for ActivityPub. Language is powerful when used well.

It might have been so in certain circles but there's never been a strong consensus afaik.
I took it apon myself to make a stand and narrow down a most applicable definition for the Fediverse on Wiktionary.

@cwebber briefly gave contributed his opinion for the entry too.
