I thought maybe when I click on the communities page on Lemmy.world, that I could then sort the list of communities/magazines/servers by clicking on the subscribers column and it would sort the list by that column.

If this isn’t a bug and I’m doing it right, is there another way to sort?

    Why are people calling it “threadiverse”???

    I’ve seen this quite a lot recently, and I don’t get it. It’s the fediverse, isn’t it? This name sounds like it comes from Facebook’s thing…

      Threadiverse is basically used to refer to the Reddit-like part of the Fediverse, and the reason it’s needed is essentially Kbin. Even though they use the same protocol (and are more similar than say, Lemmy and Mastodon), Kbin is a completely different piece of software written in a different language (PHP). So just calling it Lemmy misses out on those 60k+ users. And saying Fediverse includes Mastodon and PeerTube etc etc as well.

      Kbin and Lemmy have been referred to as the threadiverse for much longer than Meta’s Threads has been around, even before it was known only as Project 92.

        I mean, we are on a community called Fediverse. I’m rather new here but it seems Fediverse won that debacle.
