Lemmy communities need a distinct one word name for communities like how reddit has "subreddits"

Part of the latest migration wave. Something I realized when looking for communities on google is that “lemmy community” is super clumsy.

Lemmies? Sublems? Underlems?

Communities don’t have the same ring to it, I agree.

Same, let’s just start using it and it’ll catch on.

What happens when multiple servers have the same sublem. Do I have to individually find and follow them all? Seems annoying.

I imagine one sublem would become the most frequented and the others would naturally go quiet.

Showerthoughts

Create post

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct
