So? The whole idea of the fediverse is to be able to follow and communicate no matter where your account resides. My account is on mastodon.social and I follow it, why wouldn't that count?

Yes, that's my point. Mastodon is just a piece of software which interacts with the network that makes that cross-instance interaction pssible. It is not the network itself. But so many people conflate the two.

On the other hand, more people know about Mastodon than the Fediverse/ActivityPub.

So it's our job to use the correct words and tell people what we're really talking about.
