that’s not what the quoted text says at all… let’s rephrase this:
much like how users of one lemmy service such as lemmy.world can still reply to users of another service such as kbin.social, users may still view content and interact with users on any other instance in bluesky
this doesn’t say that lemmy/kbin isn’t part of the fediverse. it takes no position on that fact, merely saying that the things conceptually work in a similar manner
Your rephrasing changed it qualitatively. Of course it takes no position on whether Lemmy is part of the Fediverse considering it now does not have the word Fediverse in it.
Is the “fediverse” some sort of secret club that I’m unaware of or something?
The whole idea of the “fediverse” is that some aspect of it is cross-company, and federated across instances. Email fits that term exactly. The wiki entry doesn’t exclude email via the comparison, if anything it makes more of an argument that email is one of the first federated services to exist. The “fediverse” is just the collection of those federated services.
