The overlapping series of networks can be referred to in macro as The Free Network.

At the moment, several projects in the space are working to adopt new supplementary protocols, with the intent of building better bridges between one another.

Mastodon just released support for ActivityPub, and Pleroma , Socialhome and GNU Social are thinking of adopting it. Nextcloud is also notably getting into the federation space, and Hubzilla and Friendica will likely both support the ActivityPub protocol as extensions.
