The three -verse terms I've heard in use are:
Lemmyverse doesn't really make sense, as it would all be visible from Kbin instances (unless they are all defederated).
What would make sense is a term for the "microblogverse", referring to all the posts from Mastodon/Miskey/Kbin/etc. This makes up the majority of the Fediverse, but it's mostly invisible to Lemmy users.
As a Kbin user, microblogs definitely are not all the posts we make here. We can both microblog through "Add new post" and make a thread through "Add new link", "Add new thread", and "Add new photo".
Ah, yeah, sorry - that was badly phrased. I shouldn't have included Kbin on that list. I'm on Kbin myself, just worded myself poorly. :)
Sorry! One thing Kbin doesn't do and that Lemmy seems to do sometimes is telling me, without me clicking on the user's profile, which platform and instance a poster is posting from.
