I woke up in the middle of the night with this thought in my head: “Leaving Reddit should be called Lemigrating.”

Then I went straight back to sleep.
(As for why I'm posting it here, I guess the word "emigrate" just makes me think of the leathery people in strappy tops on A Place in the Sun. 🤷♂️)
For me? Rexit.

That's a new one. So far I've seen rexxit, rexodus, and rexxodus. I prefer rexxit. It emphasizes the reddit exit, the double x's keep the spelling similar, and you use x's to strike out things you don't like. Also, it's short and easy to type.
Anyway, most people seem to be split between lemmy and kbin.
