I rarely hear Liverpudlians used, it's usually Scousers. Apparently it's quite contentious about who's a proper scouser or not. Something about the color of their bins.

@jamesb Scousers is equally unusual a demonym for someone from Liverpool.
bins as in the thing they put refuse in?
@MLE_online
Yep, trash receptacles. I think to be a true scouser your house must have a purple council bin.
Scousers comes from the name of the stew they eat. From the original name Lobscouse.

@jamesb If the name comes from the stew you eat, it seems that anyone who grew up eating that stew or regularly eats the stew would be a scouser. Identifying oneself by your trash bin seems so ... bureaucratic.
Then again, here people identify themselves with their telephone area code.

As usual, it's complicated.

Chris Morgan@MLE_online I don’t have any suggestions, but enjoying this thread - even though I was born in Liverpool!

Asymmetricblue> A Fedizen?
Too sci-fi.
"Citizen of " has a certain vibe, since 2016, for those of us living in the UK
DHeadshot's Alt@MLE_online
The general case for people here is Fedizens, but for Mastodon specifically, the best I've heard is "Mastonauts"...

I like Fedizens. Technically I'm not on Mastodon, just the Fediverse.

für immer und ewig@MLE_online the expression #dwellers implies we are comparable to inhabitants of an island but we only spend some time in a virtual user space.
