the other thing that leads me to this post is my own musing at roughly the same time (but unrelated to the first thing) about the differences between "fediverse" and "social web", which are pretty clearly not synonyms to me. but that got me thinking: what even *is* the web? (so this is kind of a follow-up to that.)
