Fediverse memes

Genuine question as a former Redditer what are they called here on Lemmy?

I just hate when anyone uses a name that signifies they use some site - lemmings, imgurians, redditors, whatever. I am no more a lemming than I am a reader for reading books or an eater for having dinner.

I know it's a joke but there are probably users who get genuinely angry and unleash all kinds of undeserved abuse when they see this. Old habits are hard to break, so let's be human.

lame lemming limtards going to keep on lemming

To be fair, most of us have been "that lemming" at one point or another.

But I can SUBScribe to them 😔.

i call them subs because they are full of submissives

"I prefer to use my social media my way, alone!"

When someone refers to a community as a 'comm', they're just trying to make 'fetch' happen.

If you hit me up on 'comms', I'm gonna need a radio; that's what the word means, if you've been alive any time in the last 100 years.

I like “coms” or “comms”

I’ve seen someone use the term “Lemmy” which I thought was kind of cute and should also be acceptable. And I think “sub” should be okay too if it’s short for “sublemmy.” Even though that’s not technically what they are called. Obviously /r is not right, it would have to be /c.

Using "lemmings" is arguably more wrong - there are plenty of people on the fediverse who are not using lemmy.
