Coming from Reddit, the term subreddit was easy. Is there already a short name for Lemmy Communities?
Lemmity?
Lemmunity?
Sublemmit? (My wife’s suggestion, now my current favorite.)
A group of lemmings is called a “slice”.
If we’re not going for community I’d vote for this.
I like slice! A slice of life… A slice of the lemmingverse 😁
I like it.

People always referred to subreddits as a sub or community anyway. Easy.

cunts
I’d say cummies for the extra cringe factor.
I laughed too hard at this
Community => Cums
Definitely should be community. And I was hoping we could all leave the 3rd grade humor behind on reddit

But subreddits are called Subreddits and have the format /r/subreddit_name.
Also, community is in my opinion
- too long to type out for something we will be using very often
- the word already has a meaning
It might be better to simply use another dedicated word

Yep. And can easily be shortened to com or comms.
Communities -> commies
Gets my vote
How about “cub”.
Like, “we need a cub for this”.
i don’t think you know the meaning behind that word and i don’t want to be the one that tells you…
A sublemmy?
Sublems?

I like slice.
I upvote “sublems” or “sublemmies”.
Lemmings… Yup. I like that.
Lemmings should refer to the users
Agreed.
I like the idea of a Slice!
Lem
plural: Lems
A burrow.
I’m officially calling communities burrows now. It’s done. And a crosspost can be a borrow.
Haha, Lemmunity was my first thought.
(also, my first comment here!)
Lmao, everything sounds like LeBron naming memes or whatever it’s called. 😂
This reminds me of the good ol memes with “le me”:
Rage comics were the golden age of memes, to be honest.
This may be a dumb question: but how do I zoom in on this pic?
“Lethargic”
Haha r/NBA memes are about to cross over to Lemmy even before the NBA Lemmy community starts!
Slice!
If Subreddit -> Sub…
Then Community -> Commune ?Seems apt given the developer’s political leanings. But it wouldn’t be as inviting to neutral users, so ‘sub’ seems to be fine to me.
Community is fine, please, no cutesy nicknames.
Sublemmy? Sublem?
