I like lemmings but it might be a bit derogatory. Even with that I still think it’s better than ‘redditors’, which always sounded/looked goofy to me.

Any ideas? What do we call Lemmy users?

My current vote is for lemmings. I think it’s cute.

It’s a myth popularized by Walt Disney in a documentary where they made the claim and dumped a bunch of lemmings off a cliff into the sea to prove they did just that.
