Wikipedia and other sources tend to use “the Fediverse”, but I’ve also seen just “Fediverse”. From what I know, it depends on whether the term is a proper name or just the name of a unique thing. Could someone please explain how do you think the term should be properly named and why?

    “The queen” is normally the queen of England. “Queen” is normally the band.

    You could address the queen of England “hello queen” but that’s the only context i can think of.

      One more - her (informal) name is “queen Elizabeth”, no " the".

      I don’t know the terminology around it, but it seems like its similar with other titles - “who is the president”, but “vote for president dog”.
