I vote for lemmurs instead

Like the animal: lemur?

Lemmyheads?

Why not? Can you explain why you don't like the name?

[-] MentallyExhausted@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

Because lemmings are considered dumb followers

Oh, where did you hear that?

Oh, now I understand. I liked the name because of the show Grizzy and the Lemmings.

There are terms for this. The communities are called communities and not Sublemmies. And Lemmings is a very specific term which excludes all the other services in the Fediverse which can interact with Lemmy communities. I prefer an inclusive term like Fedinauts or Fedizens.

Subreddits are already called communities with /c/ prefix

I'm leaning towards: sublems or comms
