Coming from Reddit, the term subreddit was easy. Is there already a short name for Lemmy Communities?
Lemmity?
Lemmunity?
Sublemmit? (My wife’s suggestion, now my current favorite.)
A sublemmy?
Community is fine, please, no cutesy nicknames.
Hexbear uses “comm”
Good question. Similarly I was talking with someone the other day about what a user should be called (Lemming?) and what the act of using Lemmy might be called (also lemming!)
I like Lemmunity :-)
Sublems?
Personally I prefer Community, it is nicely neutral and conveys the correct message I think. If people think that’s too broad, then “sub” is a solid short option.
I personally use “com” and hope it catches on.
Why not just community? It’s already called a community everywhere on the instances and its /c/ in the url. Imo it should start with a C no matter what
Yep. And can easily be shortened to com or comms.
Communities -> commies
People always referred to subreddits as a sub or community anyway. Easy.
Ok, so cum for short then?
cunts
Lem
plural: Lems
Mlems
…No, hear me out. If we’re lemmings, therefore lems, a community is many lems. So mlems. Also it’s catchy.
Lemmings.
This has been used for “redditor” by now btw.
same thing…
I upvote “sublems” or “sublemmies”.
Lemmings… Yup. I like that.
Lemmings should refer to the users
Sublemmy? Sublem?
A group of lemmings is called a “slice”.
If we’re not going for community I’d vote for this.
Lmao, everything sounds like LeBron naming memes or whatever it’s called. 😂
This reminds me of the good ol memes with “le me”:
Rage comics were the golden age of memes, to be honest.
