Can someone explain to me the difference between Black Mastodon and Black Fediverse like I am a 12 year old? Thanks.

@drcaberry Fediverse is the underlying structure that Mastodon runs on. A bunch or other applications also run on the Fediverse.

@drcaberry

and for some BlackMastodon relates too much to huge instances like mastodon.social

BlackFediverse seems to relate more to the variety of instances

that being said, currently I see BlackMastodon being used more

@drcaberry I think Black Mastodon is just black people across all Mastodon servers/instances/neighborhoods. I think the Black Fediverse is black spaces across all of the potential fediverse (e.g., Pleroma, PeerTube, Misskey, Pixelfed).

@drcaberry that said, I'm not familiar with any part of the fediverse beyond Mastodon (and barely that).
