If we call reddit users redditors, what do we call lemmy users

A lot of people say fedditors but that sounds way too derivative of reddit

Lemmings, clearly
I don't understand why this isn't the most up voted selection.
Ask and you shall receive
Lemmings is the obvious choice
Yes, I'm willing to follow all of you off a cliff.
Did you know, the famous shot of lemmings falling of a cliff in the documentary that started the ideas that lemmings will just die following their peers off a cliff was actually a bunch of documentary makers pushing a bunch of lemming off of it to make a cool shot and not actual lemmings behavior ? You probably did actually...
I concur!
I'll stand by this till the end.

Lemmings of course
Yeah, this is the answer
Oh noooooooo
"pop!"
It was tragic and hilarious at the same time, when they grabbed their heads and said that. Even moreso when it was dozens of them.
Lemmings.
This is the clear answer.
It was a real cliffhanger

What about Lemmyists? Like Lyricists, but instead of writing songs we author Internet comments.
Lemmicles.
Lemmies :D
Just. Cute.
I was gonna say lemmons but 🤷🏼♀️
IRL meetups can be called lemmon parties
Yaaaas now this gets me
Lemmonites
Sounds like an Ancient Greek city state doesn’t it the samnites the Lemmonites from Lemmonaestra etc etc
Lemmywinks

Lemmingtons for us Aussie users
Great, now I want lamingtons.
Lemmington Spas for the Brits

The lemmon party
Lemmings or Lemmonades
Lemmings sounds absolutely adorable and since the app is defunct it is kind of free for the taking.
Lemmonades sounds like a bad citrus disease.
I don't think "lemmings" is a very appropriate name, considering the potentially harmful implications of blind misguided movement and lack of individuality.
I think "lemmings" is a very appropriate name because it is funny because of those potentially harmful implications.
Those implications being, don't trust big corporations as they will round you up and dump you over the side of a cliff to sell sad story and profit off your suffering? Yup, I agree, seems appropriate here.
“New viral cliff-jumping challenge linked back to Lemmy; a place where it’s users call themselves ‘Lemmings’…”
It's absolutely appropriate and approved. Hey guys, we've asked lemmings.
I find myself ok with the Lemming appellation
Um.. so very appropriate? considering what reddit was.
Motörheads
Lemurs, we goin' back to monké
I like Lemmings and Lemmons.
Would that make a group of Lemmons a Lemmon Party?
Fedizen, cause lemmy is just a part of the fediverse.
I prefer to think of myself as having been a Redditeur. Far above the peasantry of the Redditors. /s
You're the landed gentry?
Pray tell, good sir or madam, might I inquire if you, in all your noble magnificence, can lay claim to a distinguished position within the hallowed ranks of the illustrious landed gentry of Reddit?
hearken, noble interlocutor, for I, a friendly stranger, a lemur in the unregulated wilderness, shall respond to your query with fervor and ardor unmatched! as a resplendent scion, one amongst many, you included, of the exalted lemmy and fediverse community, I cast aside the shackles of conformity and decry the corporatized dominion of reddit and its ilk. ah, u/spez, the very mention of this name stirs within my breast a tempest of discontent, for he presides over a realm of shadowed machinations, where the spirit of authentic discourse is obscured by the veils of corporate control.
but fret not, for our sanctified haven, nestled within the heart of the lemmy and fediverse domains, remains untainted by such mendacity. Here, we stand united in our commitment to decentralization, open-source ethos, and the sanctity of genuine expression. within these hallowed grounds, where the embers of freedom illuminate our paths, I, a humble acolyte, navigate the labyrinthine corridors of feral communion, engaging in profound colloquies that transcend the shallow confines of corporate interests.
thus, if thou seeketh enlightenment or discourse within these realms, I implore thee, dear seeker, to unfurl thy queries. for the lemurs, with unwavering devotion, shall unveil the profound wisdom and erudition that resides within, casting light upon the shadowed corners and illuminating the path toward true emancipation from the clutches of corporate dominion.
Hahaha, now that I think about it, as a joke I may have been made mod of some tiny shipost sub I commented in with confusion. I'm not sure if they ever actually did it, though.

Oh, HELL YES!!
I was thinking the same.

And if there’s a meetup, it can be called a “lemon Party”… I don’t see anything wrong with that term!

I like the term "Fedinauts" since we interact cross platform like with Kbin users here too.
I like it. Descriptive, and extensible.
I don't hate this.

Fedos lol
Federasts
Federalist is what that term should be if we're going that route. It's already a word with that exact meaning, though typically related to the government of a state/nation rather than a website/app.

When life gives you lemons... Make lemonades
"When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
Lemminators. The first were here when the fediverse was created, but since July 1st redditors are becoming Lemminators too: Judgement Day.
Limburgers
Lemmors
One Lemmyr, two Lemmyrs.
Lemons
Lemmizens
I wouldn't want to identify with something I use in my spare time. I like videogames I'm not a gamer. It is not my job lol. But do whatever you want. I just think it's unnecessary.
I don’t think this is for self identification as much as a way for third parties to refer to a user group.
Lemmentites and Lemmentoids
Lemmitors, obviously.
I love it
For us kbin folks, I've seen kbeans and kbinauts
Kbinauts is my favorite. I'd also accept kbinner.
Kbeans is definitely the best!
I had this question about the categories or "sub-reddits." What are we calling those? Sub-lemmys? Sub-lemons? Sub-lemms?
What about Lemmiwinks?
Gods, because Lemmy = God.
Lemmurs
And not one of you said LAME?? I'm ashamed!
Lamingtons? Lamb shanks? Lamborghinis?
Federatians
Lemmynistas
Winks/Winkers in memory of Lemmywinks?

The generally accepted name is Lemming, latin name foedoratus lemmius.
I've been assembling a brief taxonomy of common social media users, which is still a work in progress. But if image upload works you can see it here

Just call them people. What do you need a cutesy nickname for?
You were downvoted but you’re right. What’s the cutesy nickname for people who use email? Do these people still say they’re surfing the information superhighway?
lemmytards.. i mean lemmitors. lemmyteirs? Lemmiknights?
i kinda like Lemmiknights.

Lemmings
This so far seems to be the generally accepted term that's been making it's way around the platform here recently.
It’s the only reasonable answer given the name really
This and it isn't even an option
And at some point, someone looking for a payday1 is going to take video of us being herded off a cliff by an asshole2 even though we don’t actually do that unless provoked, and it will become a totally wrong impression of us that enters the common knowledge base.

Ironic, since lemmings don't actually jump off cliffs. The people making the documentary (Disney) that's famous from actually threw them over the cliff to make it interesting.
Lemmyngs
This is the correct answer.
DMA Design FTW! (And thanks Psygnosis :-)
Could only ever be this!
The only correct response.
Yeah this was already decided a while back. It's also why so many communities have AI-created banners with Lemmings doing various weird things.
I saw that someone has also suggested calling communities c/liffs, to go along with the Lemming theme. I thought it fit.
I like calling communities "slice" better, because even without the context, the people can guess what it may be. The context is a range of sources quoting:
Gotta be this
I concur
Indeed, this is the way.
It writes itself really
