Unfortunately thats a very common problem, lots of people consider Mastodon and Fediverse to be synonyms. Its probably because Mastodon is so much bigger than all the other Fediverse platforms, and its the first one that people hear about. I think over time they will also start getting to know the other projects.
@AdaShovelace Tumblr joining the fediverse is cool and all, but what I really wanted was an open source “tumblr” software (like Masto/Pleroma are open source Twitter) so that random peeps could run their own instances and thus we’d be safe from the corporation unilaterally changing the rules like happened to Tumblr back in the nsfw-pocalypse :P

@nutomic For those who wonder what else is out there in the #Fediverse, here is a map:

The lack of a Tumblr equivalent on Fediverse makes me a sad boi.
Tumblr itself is coming to the fediverse though, so I don’t imagine anyone is keen to try and fill that niche in the interim

Sure, but it seems like a very specific niche to try and develop and fill, only to end up losing a chunk of your userbase when Tumblr goes live…
@WetHat @nutomic Is 41% a pass mark.
@frankcat @nutomic 41% ❓ - Explain, please.
@WetHat @nutomic There is a QUIZ to test your knowledge of the fediverse.
@frankcat @nutomic I guess you are referring to that quiz:

I would say 41% is certainly a pass mark.🥇
