Do you think the name metaverse is taken from the name fediverse? (feddit.de)

Or did they come up with it by themselves?

Recently was talking with someone and they said "fediverse and metaverse" in one breath and I was like whoa. I don't think anyone wants to give Facebook even Meta let alone metaverse.

The two concepts share very little except the rhyme. I see the term as really up the air so I'd only use it if I wanted to confuse people.
