@raucao thats pretty good actually, just to talk about the whole ecosystem of alternative infrastructure that is in the commons. as an introduction to it that's probably a better place to start then the fediverse anyway
@liaizon 3 syllables is just too long. People also say "insta" when they refer to Instagram for example. Facebook only has 2 syllables, which is why they don't need a shorthand in daily conversation. But basically all popular names don't exceed 2 syllables.
This is also why the term XMPP is so much worse than saying Jabber, when used in conversation.
