They're communities. And the different servers/sites are instances.

Sub-Lemminal messages?

Communities, which have a parent instance.

+1 for Communities, since that's what they are called in the official UI and documentation

I just thought they were called "communities". At least, that's what the Lemmy UI shows.

I'll just call them sublemmys

Communities is the name used on my UI.

On Lemmy, they are "communities".

On Kbin, they are "magazines". I am told that "magazine" is a pun in Polish (Kbin's maintainer is Polish).

just call them communities (I also sometimes just call them topics because that's how they're called in my reddit clone pet project)

Lemmings!!!

Lemmings

The use of 'comm' and 'comms' as short form for communities makes the most sense to me. Lemmy's url path already uses /c/ as the designation as well.

Like 'sub' and 'subs', they are one syllable, and are easy to say and spell.

officially, per protocol, it's Groups. but that sucks :)

oh snap! you know Lemmy has hit the big time when its a topic of discussion between SOs!

I’ve seen “communities,” and my personal conceit is that “like” communities (communities with the same, similar, or synergistic subject matter) are “cohorts” so you don’t have to type “multi-communities”

communities

I like communities. I believe that's the the /c/ stands for

"lemmies" has a nice ring to it

Sometimes Iused "sublemmies" based on what a few others have done, but mostly I just use community or something similar.

@falcoignis On KBin, they're called "Magazines". Not quite sure if I like it. lol.

Lemmunities (I pulled it out of my ass, take it or leave it)

Technically communities but I prefer the term sublemmy

Sublemmies?
