I'm leaning towards: sublems or comms
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.
I'm not a fan of sumlemmies. Since "communities" is a mouthful, I propose "communes" or just "commies".
I really hope lemmings doesn’t become the norm
I vote for lemmurs instead
Like the animal: lemur?
Lemmyheads?
I like lemmings.
Agreed. Maybe lemmitor?
Why not? Can you explain why you don't like the name?
because it sounds redditarded
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.
