If we call reddit users redditors, what do we call lemmy users (lemmy.world)

A lot of people say fedditors but that sounds way too derivative of reddit

I second this one. Even though it’s fairly close to Lemmings, it does roll of the tongue and is unique enough from any other title.

The singular of that would be Lemmy, which would get confusing quickly. I think Lemmies should be what we call instances instead of what we call users.

You could always shorten the singular to ‘Lemmi’ or something similar to prevent confusion.

Good point though!
