Hello everyone! I just set up this new account?

Things seem pretty cool here on this "fediverse". What does that mean though, the "fediverse"? I hear it's using ActivityPub. Could anyone explain to me what that means? Thanks!

@cwebber The #Fediverse is a searchable hashtag.
The Fediverse, as I understand it, is an alternative zone not driven by advertisers or venture capitalists, where one can jump between servers, with no switching costs as opposed to the walled gardens of Facebook and or BlueSky.

@cwebber
Personally I blame #Autism for interpreting your question literally, i.e. 'There are new people on Mastodon, and this is one of them.'
