Saying "Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed" is too long, just Lemmy is reductive, "Threadiverse" doesn't really roll off the tongue,we are only a subset of the Fediverse. What would you call us? Horrible names allowed (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Yeah, pointing people to individual instances seems to be the most effective way of getting them to try out whatever we call this place. They can learn how it works later.

Example of confusion some users experience: https://old.reddit.com/r/RejoinEU/comments/1ipff9z/ok_so_what_next_what_can_you_do_to_help_the_cause/me0jdxp/?context=3

Seems the confusion was the many people referring to Lemmy the project as Lemmy the service. And it was cleared up when the discussion moved to instance as the service and apps for the service.

I think I'm getting too old to keep with modern apps. I managed the switch to bluesky but Lemmy, Thunder and Voyager might be too much for me.

That's the result of referring to Lemmy as a service instead of Lemmy as a project. It was cleared up when people stopped doing that.
