What does Meta mean on Fluther?

Why is there no explanation of the Meta section until you actually begin the process of answering a question?

How would users who don’t ask questions know what it is? I sure didn’t know until I began to ask a question, and at that point, it tells you.

Edit: okay I see it now: “Questions about Fluther and the Community”. But I sure had no clue what that was for 2 days. I guess I didn’t know all the meanings of the word “meta”
