I’m not sure what this post is trying to convey. The fediverse is another thing designed to kill old school forums, I thought?

The fediverse is more like the evolution of those old school forums, but diversified into more than just forums. Decentralized, user ran shit that could be a forum, a microblog, a YouTube alternative, a Discord/IRC alternative, an image host, etc. And then they could possibly share content with each other directly, but that’s kinda up to the individual app/site.

The main difference is that the Fediverse content and knowledge is accessible for everyone, as opposed to Reddit and Discord
