How to talk about the #fediverse / #activitypub without mentioning it? Are people understand these buzzwords or should we simply talk about "following" or "subscribing"?

@pfefferle I’ve been using the term “the open social web.”

@tchambers let's be more concrete: when showing a list of followers or a following dialogue, should we mention the #fediverse or #activitypub? does it help or does it confuse? Is it enough to simply say "follow me" and these are my "followers"?

Follow

@pfefferle

Definitely Fediverse over ActivityPub.

The former is the platform that they are going to join, while the latter is just the language that makes the platform work.

It's like saying join me at that coffee shop for a chat versus join me to speak some English.
