Is there a short name for "Lemmy Community"?

Sublems?

A group of lemmings is called a "slice".

If we're not going for community I'd vote for this.

A burrow.

Haha, Lemmunity was my first thought.

(also, my first comment here!)

I upvote "sublems" or "sublemmies".

Lemmings... Yup. I like that.

Sublemmy? Sublem?

I like slice.

Good question. Similarly I was talking with someone the other day about what a user should be called (Lemming?) and what the act of using Lemmy might be called (also lemming!)

I like Lemmunity :-)

I like the idea of a Slice!

Personally I prefer Community, it is nicely neutral and conveys the correct message I think. If people think that's too broad, then "sub" is a solid short option.

Mlems

...No, hear me out. If we're lemmings, therefore lems, a community is many lems. So mlems. Also it's catchy.

Edit: Well fuck. Obviously not an ios user -.-

A sublemmy?

Going with c/ how about "circle"

**Lem ** plural: Lems

Baby rodents are called a pup, can we call it a pup please?

Honestly, I think the answer is obvious … same as it was before … “Sub”.

Especially as kbin uses “magazine” for its communities, which means we need a short hand that is not specific. “Sub” captures the idea perfectly well and obviously carries over the Reddit analogy.

My vote would be keep “Community” as the long form name, as it’s a good description of what it is and for. Then short form “sub” because in essence it’s a subset of the total community.

Blink three times if you're contractually obliged to prefer her suggestion/preferring it under duress.

I'd send help but my wife is home.

Lemco

Lmao, everything sounds like LeBron naming memes or whatever it's called. 😂

Lemming

I liked your wifes suggestion of Sublemmit, but I would compact it more and perhaps call it a Sublem? Much quicker to type out.

Hexbear uses "comm"

You need a single syllable alternative. "Sub" existed for Reddit, guessing "Lem" is the only option available here.

lemon

I saw Lemmyverse somewhere and I kind of dig it

How about commune? Short and sweet, and goes with the c/ in the url

Seconding "Sublem"

I personally use "com" and hope it catches on.

Slice!

How about LeCo for Lemmy community?

Community is fine, please, no cutesy nicknames.

comm?

Summy?

Lemmings.

Lemmcomm?

(edited to add an 'm')

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.

I kinda like “Lemon”.

What about "community"?

Lemmurians

I kind of wish the term from Kbin would catch on, Magazines.

Commy

(Yea, this isn't going to go well with the Ammys Americans)

Lemurs? Lemmings?

Lemlet

Lemerators

lemmyhive
