this community has a sole goal of making the fediverse big enough to compete with popular social media platforms of today, and even replacing them altogether as our endgame.

it's as though seems like were trying something impossible here, regardless:

TL;DR; if anyone can come up with a good name for this community, please post it in the comments.

so far we have:

  • 24 Hours of Fediverse
  • Fediverse World Tour
  • fed up!
  • D-central

edit; this is not just for a lemmy community. as mentioned below, we have a wide variety of things that were gonna do in the future. so were not just confined to a sublemmy, obviously. more like a community organization. see the previous post.

I was inspired by sports car races, how about 24 Hours of Fediverse? It will be an endurance race after all.

People want Fediverse to be used widely all around the world, Fediverse World Tour would also be fitting.

24 Hours of Fediverse is a fun name, and it doesn't also sound like an activist name at all, which fits our image, we're gonna have a fun war against big media corporations after all.

I'll keep that on my list, thanks :)

that gave me a really good idea, a since were kind of doing something impossible, we should make it as if this was a game for us users.

It sounds like an event. Maybe 24 hours of only using the fediverse. Nothing else - no search engines, no chat apps. Fediverse only. Ask people searchqueries you would usually search for, no chats would also serve as a bit of a detox, etc.
