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.)

People always referred to subreddits as a sub or community anyway. Easy.

cunts
I’d say cummies for the extra cringe factor.
I laughed too hard at this
Community => Cums
But subreddits are called Subreddits and have the format /r/subreddit_name.
Also, community is in my opinion
- too long to type out for something we will be using very often
- the word already has a meaning
It might be better to simply use another dedicated word

Yep. And can easily be shortened to com or comms.
Communities -> commies
How about “cub”.
Like, “we need a cub for this”.
i don’t think you know the meaning behind that word and i don’t want to be the one that tells you…
Ah. Yes, I did not think of that 😅
But to be fair, ‘sub’ has another meaning as well.
Or pups, since a baby lemming is called a pup?
Definitely should be community. And I was hoping we could all leave the 3rd grade humor behind on reddit

I’m afraid to inform you that you are on the Internet
Sublems?

Hmm… short and sweet, with a “tip of the hat” to our old reddit world. This might catch on.
The adjective being: “subleminal”
Fun to say, but I’m not sure how I’d use that in a sentance.
A group of lemmings is called a “slice”.
If we’re not going for community I’d vote for this.
I like slice! A slice of life… A slice of the lemmingverse 😁
I like it.
A burrow.
I’m officially calling communities burrows now. It’s done. And a crosspost can be a borrow.
@PotjiePig @sepiroth154 So would that make the homepages their Dens?
Haha, Lemmunity was my first thought.
(also, my first comment here!)
I upvote “sublems” or “sublemmies”.
Lemmings… Yup. I like that.
Lemmings should refer to the users
Agreed.
Sublemmy? Sublem?
I might start using sublem!
I like the idea of a Slice!
I like slice.
zesty!
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 have made my decision on the matter 😉
Is this the first great flamewar of the Lemmy era? Lemmunity or DEATH, say I! ;-)
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.
A sublemmy?
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 -.-
Holy cannoli, someone should make an app named that!
/s
Omfg I’m so sorry I saw this right after I posted my comment
That’s actually what the iOS app is called! Mlem
Going with c/ how about “circle”
And so we come back to Google+
Lmao oops I didn’t even realize it was a Google+ thing. I kinda forgot Google+ was a thing, tbh.
As did almost everyone else.
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.
