This so far seems to be the generally accepted term that's been making it's way around the platform here recently.

I feel like lemmings is already catching on.

[-] duckef@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago
[-] T0rrent01@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

I don't think "lemmings" is a very appropriate name, considering the potentially harmful implications of blind misguided movement and lack of individuality.

[-] DaleGribble88@programming.dev 49 points 1 year ago

I think "lemmings" is a very appropriate name because it is funny because of those potentially harmful implications.

I prefer to think of myself as having been a Redditeur. Far above the peasantry of the Redditors. /s

[-] luka@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago

Fedizens? Fedditor seems to retain some of the "Reddit".

Showerthoughts

29805 readers
500 users here now

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
