Lemmings.
Case closed.
This question does get asked a lot, as someone else pointed out. But even if you go back to when it was asked a couple of years ago the consensus has always been lemmings.
Old school represent!
I used to play lemmings on my pc in like '92 thats ancient school i guess.
That's where I got my avatar
We really need to get a search function so this post can stop being asked 1x daily by some new refugee.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad y'all are here and it moves a lot faster than 2y ago, but every day with this question, and no consensus has been reached. We should all just stop "asking" and let time tell us what we call ourselves, some word will win eventually.
I don't think Reddit refugees in particular will be used to a search function that works.
Ooof
It is literally the first thing you see in the sidebar
Weeellll when you click that link in jerboa it just loads your "local" tab, so I'm hesitant to call that a "working" search function.
See the sidebar - it's not perfect, but it's there. The most recent post I can find is from two weeks ago so leaving this one up.
The "search asklemmy" link that loads my "local" tab in jerboa? Hard to call that "working" imo.
Lemmings.
As stated, lemmy is named after 4 sources, with the furry rodent being one of them. (Although the last option)
I love being a furry rodent gnawing away at Reddit. ;)
Most Lemmings that have been asked about this have agreed that Lemmings is a pretty nice name.
Lemon Partiers

Road crew!
Before any of the iOS apps were worth a damn, I decided to try and figure out how to make an app myself. I was going to call it Ace, and hope that at least someone knew why.
I didn't get very far though, because I've literally never made an app before.

Lemmings.
Lemmings, KBiners, Fedi... Folk? I don't know.
Fedifolk i can actually rally my pitchfork behind that one.
Lemmies? 🤷
Lemmies are the Instances themselves, actually. Lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, beehaw.com are all Lemmies/Instances/Servers. The terms are used interchangeably, with most calling them Instances.
Kilmisters
This is it. It's even named after him.
Lemmi
😉
Least bad name is lemyrians. I prefer lemmy users
I use Lemmy and Kbin simultaneously. I prefer the term 'Fedditors', which I recently read in a similar thread..
Lemmites, obviously, or Lusers

Squanchers
Ah thank you. I clearly had no idea. 😹
