Speaking of bulletins, when I first heard of the fediverse, I had the total wrong idea.

I thought it would be like you can post on Lemmy, as a bulletin, and Masodon users could see it on their end. (Assuming they were subscribed to the poster).

MY envisionment of how the fediverse worked, based on my misunderstanding would have made for a WAAAAAAAAAY cooler site/collection of sites.

And the fictional ideas I had to take it further would probably make the fediverse the dominant social media standard.
