 The closest anyone has gotten is "Social Web", which is somehow less bad than all the others. 

I kind of like thinking of this whole thing as a constellation, or an ecosystem. "Fediverse" will always be personal for me, as it's part of my own journey with technology, but I'll admit that I am always fond of it.

 When "Social Web" was first proposed, I was kind of grossed out because so many aspects that meant something to me felt diminished. It felt like something was missing.

I sarcastically suggested we called it "Womp Triangle", because on the surface it's equally meaningless. We shitposted a lot during FediForum, and now this abomination exists.
