I like lemmings but it might be a bit derogatory. Even with that I still think it’s better than ‘redditors’, which always sounded/looked goofy to me.

Any ideas? What do we call Lemmy users?

My current vote is for lemmings. I think it’s cute.

    I think Lemmings is great because it’s not something any PR team would approve of. It feels completely unincorporated.

      Reason: Rule 1. And 5.1

      Who knows what this reporter thinks they’re reporting 🤷

        If it makes you feel better, lemmings don’t actually commit suicide like you’re imagining and Disney made it all up. They basically threw lemmings off a cliff to get the footage they wanted.

    Given the rodent theming, lemmings is appropriate. It’s also slightly self-deprecating, which is a plus when it comes to community monikers.
