I like lemmings but it might be a bit derogatory. Even with that I still think it's better than 'redditors', which always sounded/looked goofy to me.

Any ideas? What do we call Lemmy users?

My current vote is for lemmings. I think it's cute.

My favorites from this thread are Lemurs, Lemmites and Lemurians, in that order.

Lemminkäinen?

Lemmites (pronounced Leh-Mites) could be one of the contenders. One can also go about saying, “Lemmites here have been nothing but kind ….” or something like, “A lemmite suggested me this website!

I think the hivemind has already spoken, but damn, I wish it was Lemons.

We could go with federators as we are now part of the fediverse, then we can also include mastodonians
