I like how The Guardian's hit piece mention's Luke Smith's recent push to get people to join fedi but the hyperlink they put in for the word fediverse was
https://snoozey.io/welcome-to-the-fediverse/ which emphasizes Mastodon and Diaspora, but does not mention Pleroma/Misskey/Honk/anything. But in Luke's video he specifically recommended Pleroma not Mastodon.
Its hilarious how little research people do when they write this stuff.
