I subconsciously felt that this “lemmy.world” instance was for those with at least a smidgeon of programming knowledge. Otherwise the name just seems odd.
I created mastodon.world just because it sounded cool and it was available. The first banner I used for that was a ‘Hello World’ image so yes that was referring to scripting.
Later I registered some more .world domains like Lemmy.world (and calckey.world and some more yet to be launched)
well, I do now :-) nice observation
No, but I do believe “Fediverse” is a reference to “faits divers”.
