Lemmians? Lemmings??
I think lemmings is the used term. But judging by the logo we’re mice
Or maybe it is a lemming.
It looks like it wants to sell single cigarettes to middle schoolers.
The Jay Mewes of the rodent world.
Linux users :P
What you are referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
ChatGPT also knows this xD https://chatgpt.com/share/00b6e835-452d-48ad-a04d-d15611816ea1
Depending on the person, either Lemmings, Lemmies, or Lemurs, and subreddits are Burrows.
If I get a vote, I vote Lemurs.
You get a vote, but you don’t live in a swing state.
So many ads as the election gets close, a few have started already. Not looking forward to it.
Lemurs
Leap! Leap!
A Zoboomafoo fan in the wild?!
with the federated nature of the verse, do we need a name for a single contributing platforms users?.. maybe.
you have kids using only ‘apps’ who barely know what the lemmy platform does, because all they know is the app theyre using… you could have magazines that have zero lemmy users contributing, because the content and its users are interacting from different, compatible fediverse platforms.
it gets somewhat muddy
ive been noodling on what we should call users of the fediverse as a whole
I see some use of “Fedizen”.
I’d like to have a term for someone using specifically the “Reddit-alike” Fediverse platforms, like kbin, mbin, lemmy, etc. “Threadiverse” has been used for that, but searching, don’t think that “threadizen” has been used for that.
well, i wouldnt aggregate the 'bins as threadiverse-only like lemmy. I chose mbin specifically because its intent is to provide both the threadiverse and twitterverse(?/microblog) interactivity, natively.
granted, the microblog portion is still a bit clunky, it is in development… but the 'bins do not need some of the ‘bridging’ that the lemmy platform requires
specifically because its intent is to provide both the threadiverse and twitterverse(?/microblog) interactivity, natively.
Well, yeah, but in the context of collectively talking about people who use communities (or as kbin puts it, magazines), it’d be the “Reddit-alike” functionality, rather than the “Twitter-alike”.
I mean, I might also use IRC, and someone could even add support for IRC to one of the software packages, but then I’d be both an IRC user and a Reddit-alike user, even though I use both.
EDIT: Though that does kind of raise the question of whether there should be a generic for the “Twitter-alike” microblog environment. “Mastodon” is just one Fediverse microblogging package.
How about just Feds? I have to admit that would amuse me somewhat.
We’re literally the Feds.
The name glows too brightly for my taste.
I like that one.
Noodles it is then.
Moodles.
I believe that that’s what the video game Project Zomboid uses to refer to the icons shown onscreen to show character mood.
kagis
Yup.
Huh. TIL…
feds
feds already has a largely negative connotation… for brittany especially.
Lemmings
Lemguinis
I heard lemmings and lemmies, usually people just use “y’all”
deleted by creator
I wish we could reconsider the name “Lemmy” to begin with
Lemmings<Kilmisters
Lemmerites
Keeping with the spirit of the Fediverse, maybe every instance should have their own.
Kilmisters.
I thought it was Motörheads?
