Reddit has subreddits. What does Lemmy go with?

My personal vote is for lemmings!

Edit: I am personally leaning towards Sublemmy now. It retains the context of being a forum under the general sphere of Lemmy and the connection to Reddit lets people know immediately what Lemmy is about. Thanks to @[email protected] for the comment!

        That’s a very important point. Some of us probably still remember the learning curve when coming to lemmy. Everyone has heard how others complained about it, or would not join in the first place.

        Creating ambiguous terms and multiple definitions for the same things is one unecessary way to make life harder for everyone.

        More reasons:

        • the documentation calls it community
        • the unchangeable URL refers to it: /c/

      Yeah but that sounds kinda bland. A good community needs some lore to dig through to make it more interesting!

        I suggest cliffs. Because lemmings jump down cliffs according to Disney. And it matches with /c/

          Lol, but no. I will say that the first day of migration I had used the analogy, with Reddit being Disney forcing the actions of the lemmings to make a choice. But I think in this case what they thought was a cliff was actually a briar patch. How’s that for a combo reference?
