Seeing that kind of comments whenenver someone does Mastodon integration of any sort:

"What you're referring to as Mastodon, is in fact, Fediverse/Mastodon, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Fediverse plus Mastodon"

Open source community, as obnoxious as ever 🤦‍♂️

At that point Mastodon is the recognized name so except if your audience is OSS developers that's the one you should be using in UX.

But it raises interesting questions of how to specify what your really support in hints/comments.

Fediverse is less recognized but might not be precise enough if you require ActivityPub as it encompass non-ActivityPub services.

Some integrations like @itchio hardcode URLs (So mainly mastodon only) but for theses that call the webfinger endpoint to get the URL they actually support more than even the fediverse as they don't care about the AP endpoint, only the profile-page one and could be used with any website that wants to implement webfinger.

But if your UI is "webfinger acct:" nobody will know what it is :blobfoxlaugh:
