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.

what about "fed up!"?

we are fed up with popular social media and we also want to "up" the fediverse

EDIT: I actually had a similar idea to OP a few months ago and I already created [email protected] but I got sidetracked by IRL things. I would be glad to give someone else a mod role if anyone is interested

This is my favorite thus far. Short for federated, and it sums up one of the purposes of federated platforms.

let's work together then. I really need someone I can trust to handle the hosting account (because of my age), and I kind of have plans that would need some assistance. we can share ideas if you want to.
