If we're no longer called redditors, what are we? Lemons? Lemmings? Lemurs? (self.asklemmy)

I've been kinda partial to Lemmings personally.

This exact question is asked multiple times per day

[–] elkaki@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

Its bizarre how even the title is the same, like, OP is clearly not a bot based on his comment history but this is an exact post of a few weeks ago...

[–] Mautobu@victoriagaming.ca 13 points 2 years ago

Lemmings.

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

feds

[–] binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 years ago

Got my vote, since it is implementation agnostic, and refers to the big differentiator from centralized platforms

[–] scottmeme@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 years ago

Whatever you honestly feel like, us on sh.itjust.works go by sh.itheads

I like Federati because it includes kbin and mastodon.

But if you want a term just for Lemmy I like Lemons.

[–] moreeni@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

FYI, the (mostly accepted) term for Fediverse users is Fedizens

[–] livus@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Thanks, I like that!

We had a thread about this a few days ago, removing under rule #4.

Users.

We are all Ohioans today (for some unknown reason)

[–] dot20@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Only on Lemmy 💀

[–] fratermus 1 points 2 years ago

We're called "people who ask this same question in asklemmy about every 3 days".

[–] flipthetube@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

People.

Except for the bots.

[–] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Lummoxes.

[–] donslaught@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I vote for Lemmynheads.

[–] mathlad@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lemsters sounds cool (I just thought of it last night haha)

[–] olivier@lemmy.fait.ch 1 points 2 years ago

I vote for diversifeds, since we're not all on Lemmy (nor any single piece of software) anymore.
