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.
Community is fine, please, no cutesy nicknames.
A sublemmy?
Hexbear uses “comm”
Why not just community? It’s already called a community everywhere on the instances and its /c/ in the url. Imo it should start with a C no matter what
Definitely should be community. And I was hoping we could all leave the 3rd grade humor behind on reddit
People always referred to subreddits as a sub or community anyway. Easy.
Ok, so cum for short then?
cunts
I like the idea of a Slice!
Lemmings.
This has been used for “redditor” by now btw.
same thing…
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.
Summy?
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.
How about commune? Short and sweet, and goes with the c/ in the url
Lemco
Lems
Haha, Lemmunity was my first thought.
(also, my first comment here!)
Sublemmy? Sublem?
