     This? https://nlnet.nl/project/Threadiverse-ReproducibleDeployment/

     Doesn't look like the streams project is getting funding, the recipient is node9.org
     Also, it is not clear why they call it "threadiverse". The term is often used to describe the network of Reddit-like forums such as Lemmy

     I think the most famous feature of Hubzilla and Streams is nomadic identity (related: a site dedicated to it has been launched recently: https://opennomad.net/).

     @silverpill @wakest ⁂ Yes.
     
     There was quite some discussion whats going on with ActivityPub FEPs implemented by Streams and other projects during the evaluation and "threadiverse" catched somehow wrapping it for non-developer people or people asking why do we need anything else than Mastodon. Although I know it is even used on Threads for that corporate space. If there is a better word I can use it preferably in following documentation. The project is about CI/CD deployment for hosters, so the question is why would somene offer or ask an instance of Streams and not Mastodon ... in one sentence.
