Part of the latest migration wave. Something I realized when looking for communities on google is that “lemmy community” is super clumsy.

    Hmm, after a quick Google - I vote for Slice. That’s what you call a group of lemmings. A slice of lemmings.

      Wish we could make slice catch on. Not only for the reason you mentioned, but it also implies that what you are looking at is a part of a whole. So communities are a slice of lemmy.

        Guess you can always … try it, see if it catches on.

      Holy shit, that’s amazing!

      …meaning it will never catch on, but still. Great find.

        Could always ask the devs?

        Kbin can their communities Magazines, so people are okay with alternate names for communities already.

        Then again trends catch on in weird ways. What we end up calling them might be something we haven’t heard suggested yet.

      Here and now, we take a stand and use “slice” exclusively. It’s so fetch!
