If you understand what I mean, then the communication was successful
just because i understood doesn't mean anyone else would. i've been using ostatus-enabled services over a decade. meta had a huge product launch with threads and promised to federate. it is confusing to refer to the fediverse as the threadiverse and serves to support an EEE agenda, whether you mean to or not.
you certainly have the power to shape how people think about things by naming them, and you seem to understand that. the fact that there is an activitypub implementation called "threads" and that is owned by some of the worst social media villains is likely to confuse people about it and play right into the EEE plans that we know for-profit technology companies love.
