Like we’ve got Mastodon which is a microblog platform.

Lemmy/kbin which I guess you could call aggregators?

Then there’s the image and video platforms.

Is there a lexicon or terminology we’re using to describe the different types of platforms in the fediverse?

So you’re looking for a word that’s a descriptor for different types of social media e.g. aggregator vs video/image/audio hosting vs microblogging. The first word that comes to mind is that they might be different paradigms of social media?
