The Fediverse (commonly shortened to fedi)[4][5][6] is a collection of social networking services that can communicate with each other (formally known as federation) using a common protocol.
We can argue semantics all day but at the end of the day I’ll hold the same stance that we shouldn’t be fracturing the communities and instead discussing the content and idea of a decentralized communicating social media landscape.
It seems that document currently expresses that “the AT Protocol, which powers the Bluesky social network” is “[a] major protocol in competition with the Fediverse”, which suggests that neither “the AT Protocol” nor “Bluesky” are included in the Fediverse.
Moreover, “AT Protocol” and “Bluesky” are conspicuously absent from the second paragraph of the article content / lead section.
The majority of Fediverse platforms are based on free and open-source software, and create connections between servers using the ActivityPub protocol. Some software still supports older federation protocols as well, such as OStatus, the Diaspora protocol and Zot. Diaspora* is the only actively developed software project classified under the original definition of Fediverse that does not support ActivityPub.
The “Fediverse” (capital F) refers to the social media platforms utilizing ActivityPub, specifically. I don’t believe there’s any agreed-upon name for such a network on ATProto, since Bluesky is the only platform actively using it.

I believe you’re quoting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse

There discussion related to this around https://thebrainbin.org/m/fediverse@lemmy.world/t/705694/-/comment/5682552
Maybe use the same protocol, then.
And what common protocol is that? If it doesn’t talk to Fediverse servers using those servers’ protocol, then it’s not part of the same network.
ATProto is it’s own protocol / network of social media services that are communicating with each other?
So we agree that it is a different network? It is not the network that is the Fediverse?

They use the term ‘Atmosphere’ which is, admittedly, a really good play on words.
