I guess Reddit has learned nothing. At least I have learned a lot in the last few days.

I assume the “snoo” in this sub is a reference to that

"Snoo" is the alien logo. I chose it for this community because "snoocalypse" sounded better than "redditcalypse". That's it.

And also to poke fun at u/spez saying stuff like "we snoos", even if nobody in that site calls oneself a "snoo".

The other choices in my mind were c/nukethesnoo, c/dieredditdie, c/makeredditdie. I'd rather avoid "die" in the name because people might take it too literally, and I wanted something that rolled easy on the tongue. I could use also c/watchredditdie but I didn't want to associate this community with the r/watchredditdie community in Reddit itself.
