This is an interesting analogy. So in your scenario Lemmy World is like a Pub (Public House) where any bludger can mosey on down to 'warm their toes' with a little socialising.

To get creative we'd name Lemmy World, The Lemmy Worlds End, an ever popular name for a pub.

My server, being Aussie zone, is like Mercury, a centimetre from the sun ;)

And your server is probably like Yosemite National Park or something.

Yeah, I like that frame. I think I'll incorporate that into how I talk about the fediverse. Might need to polish my examples a bit more though. ๐Ÿ˜†
