Is now part of the Fediverse?

Sorry for being pedantic here, but it is important that words have meanings. Lately, some are saying that 'Fediverse' just means any distributed social media, not specifically to ActivityPub connected applications, and because is a distributed social media network it is now part of the Fediverse. Do you agree?

The term 'Fediverse' refers to...

77% Just ActivityPub applications
12% All distributed social media applications
11% Don't have an opinion or don't care

@mastodonmigration@mastodon.online Bluesky is not part of the Fediverse.
At least not the way we imagine it.

Only the Fediverse service Friendica can talk natively with Bluesky, but only because they have implemented the AT protocol.

Furthermore, the Fediverse not only includes the ActivitiyPub protocol language, but also Diaspora, DFRN, OStatus and ZOT

The AT protocol may also be added at some point, at the moment it is not part of the Fediverse
