If people using Reddit are called Redditors, then what do we call people who use Lemmy?
If people using Reddit are called Redditors, then what do we call people who use Lemmy?
Lemmyers? Lemmurs?
Lemmyists?
Lemmitors?
Lemmings.
Case closed.
This question does get asked a lot, as someone else pointed out. But even if you go back to when it was asked a couple of years ago the consensus has always been lemmings.
We really need to get a search function so this post can stop being asked 1x daily by some new refugee.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad y'all are here and it moves a lot faster than 2y ago, but every day with this question, and no consensus has been reached. We should all just stop "asking" and let time tell us what we call ourselves, some word will win eventually.
I don't think Reddit refugees in particular will be used to a search function that works.
Ooof
Lemmings.
As stated, lemmy is named after 4 sources, with the furry rodent being one of them. (Although the last option)
I love being a furry rodent gnawing away at Reddit. ;)
Most Lemmings that have been asked about this have agreed that Lemmings is a pretty nice name.
Lemon Partiers

Motorheads
Road crew!
Lemmies? 🤷
Lemmies are the Instances themselves, actually. Lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, beehaw.com are all Lemmies/Instances/Servers. The terms are used interchangeably, with most calling them Instances.
Lemmi
I use Lemmy and Kbin simultaneously. I prefer the term 'Fedditors', which I recently read in a similar thread..
Lemmings, KBiners, Fedi... Folk? I don't know.
Fedifolk i can actually rally my pitchfork behind that one.
Lemmings.
Least bad name is lemyrians. I prefer lemmy users
😉
Kilmisters
This is it. It's even named after him.
Fred.
Lemmites, obviously, or Lusers
Ah thank you. I clearly had no idea. 😹
