Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

Except for the heading it seems to be in English, no?

Indeed, only the title and the "introduction" text under it is in German. To be able to spread this more widely it would be nice to have all in English, Spanish and so on.

I wish it would say fediverso, I hate when they anglicise Spanish.

In English it means federated + universe, nothing Spanish about it. But in Spanish its obviously called fediverso.

The only way in which fediverse would be okay is if you want to make it gender neutral, but then you have Plataformas (femenine) and protocolos (masculine) so that's clearly not the idea.
