The Stoned HackerWhy do we call ourselves lemmings when lemmons is such a better name?
andyMFKUnpopular opinion, but having a name for someone who uses Lemmy is pretty cringe. under what context could you possibly use it and not sound like an idiot? At a party are you asking someone if they are a lemming/lemmon? They’re gonna look at you like wtf are you talking about.
It has big “the narwhal bacons at midnight” vibes
KaraI agree with this, most social medias don't have these kinds of names for general people, sure people who make Youtube videos are Youtubers, but people who watch youtube videos are not Youtubites or something. We can just be Lemmy users, or Kbin users
WhiteTigerRedditor is a thing though, and most people came from reddit. However, thinking about it, Youtuber and Tiktoker are reserved for the creators, not the users. As for the rest...

Yeah I'm fine with fediverse user.
AtaraxiaOr anthropomorphic chestnut.
It helps with posts a bit. Being able to say "fellow lemmings..." or "as a lemming..." I wouldn't use it in real life though.
