Edit: This only applies to Reddit immigrants, me included. The OGs are still Lemmings.
I think Lemmings has stuck so far.
I’m a kbinaut. What do i get?

Hey you’re still on Lemmy!
I’ll be fine with either as long as the reddit exodus is called ‘The Lemmoning’.
I don’t want our whole identity to just be anti-Reddit. We should be called whatever feels most natural to say, rather than some less-fitting word with an unintuitive meaning we’d have to explain all the time. Yes, we were mostly all brought here by a common ostracization from Reddit, but we’ve got plenty of other content to provide to this site than just that shared sentiment. Plus, if this site is going to be successful, it’ll need to grow a lot more, so it won’t have this strong of feelings toward the site pretty soon.
No. Lemmings is the way.
Especially when you consider that the lemmings were forced off the ledge in the original footage. They don’t actually follow each other to their deaths.
I’m definitely not dead.
I dont understand how people don’t get it we are all lemmings!
Yeppers.
We should be called Lemmy users because that’s what we are
Can we leave the le epic 420 bacon wholesome 100 Keanu posting in the past?
You mean to say that you don’t want to have your identity shaped completely by the social media you use?
Doesn’t make sense for all the people who weren’t part of the exodus though.
I mean I am a reddit refugee myself and I don’t really like the idea. It feels a little bit like a “Hostile takeover” if we reference more and more reddit stuff. Lemmy has its own culture. And personally I don’t want Lemmy to become like reddit. I like it the way it is.
Lemmy Party
I think I would prefer lemmings
I think would prefer Motorheed, which of course, is the plural of Motorhead. You are a Motorhead. You and I are two Motorheed.
I see where you’re coming from and it’s a good idea and all but we’re going to go in a different direction so….
BEANS! 🫘
Beans, beanies, lemmings, lemons, they are all ok. Bit who needs a label. I’m a lemmy user. Sure I came here from reddit but I don’t want this to become reddit.
Everything returns to crab anyways. 🦀
Wouldn’t lemmons make more sense? Then the content is the lemmonade? Oh wait, no. That doesn’t work. Hold up.
No.
