@Methylcobalamin You're missing Al's point here. Its not about 'micromanaging' speech, its about useful terminology that the average person will understand. Social Media platforms live and die by the extent of their userbase. If we are serious about the fediverse and people choosing its interoperable parts over walled garden social media owned by corporate shareholders and venture capitalists, then it needs to be as accessible as possible. Terminology is part of usability.
