What does this term “federated” being thrown around in tech lately mean?

Meaning it's like email. I can have my own domain name - @example.com , not just Gmail, and they talk to each other so people on Gmail can send email outside of Gmail, and people can send emails into Gmail.

It means that each federated technology creates a federation of "self-governing" entities, for example Mastodon servers. The meaning is very similar to the political meaning of the word.

Good question. I too don't understand it.

Ibis is a hotel chain, not the best name to pick in my opinion

The only wiki I like it's the rational wiki.

The hotel chain has a wiki?

How does this overcome power struggles and bias? That’s the most important question for me, as bias in Wikipedia is rampant these days, and even acknowledged by its founder.
