   Raise your hand if you've been on the fediverse since the identi.ca days 👋

     and yes I said "the identi.ca days" instead of the StatusNet days because it encompasses a broader period of time and work

     You can also raise it if you've been around since the StatusNet (or laconica!) days

     @heluecht @cwebber so this means pre 2013?

     @heluecht @cwebber Ok, let me rephrase this.
     
     Which is the significant date you refer to, the date when identi.ca abandoned ostatus?
     I was late to the party anyway, but I was wondering what date you meant.
     
     I only used quitter.se for some years until it went down under and setup Friendica in 2014, my current server briefly predates Mastodon by a few months and is from 2015.

     @lufthans #Friendica supports all these protocols, I think a lot of thanks for that has to go to @heluecht too, maybe not all, but I think he worked on many of those connections of Friendica to other parts of the Fediverse.

     @bobjonkman @lanodan @cwebber I would consider StatusNet, identi.ca and pump.io to all be #Fediverse

     Sure, we're now mostly using ActivityPub, but it's built on the pioneering Fediverse work that came before it

     Some day the Fediverse might leave ActivityPub behind for Spritely or some other new interoperatbilty layer ( perhaps direct /dev/brain BitTorrent to keep our clones in sync )

     The Fediverse isn't a protocol, it's a community-run network of interoperable services that AP today enables

     While pump.io never made great strides on its own (and was never part of the #Fediverse), its protocol ActivityPump formed the basis of ActivityPub that makes today's #Fediverse possible. So the pump.io significance shouldn't be understated.

     @cwebber Sadly I basically joined the fediverse when it switched to pump.io
