Somebody who is not very technical asked me whether what we do in the Fediverse is "#LocalFirst software".

Which is a very catchy name, and sort of related, but of course architecturally different if we go with the Ink & Switch definition: https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/

We need a name for the architectural style where there are many servers, many of those instances of the same software, interacting with each other over well-defined protocols (so one can temporarily forget about the many servers if one wants to), while each server is independently maintained / governed by its own community.

Ideas?
