MODERATORS
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.
