Since I and many others have decided to abandon Reddit we need new a verb to replace "redditing". I'm sure there are other terms we need to update such as calling a person a redditor. Anyone have any good alternatives/suggestions?

That one is good too. I like Lemmetting but Fedditing might be a bit easier to say.

Plus once other services like k.bin start communicating more freely with Lemmy it can stay relevant.

That is a really good point.

It's also quite pertinent given the prevalence of feddit.(country code) instances of Lemmy, eg feddit.uk, feddit.de etc.

Try touching grass if you've ever used the word "redditing"

I like that one! I also saw elsewhere someone suggesting we replace lostredditors with lostlemmings.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I really like the lost lemmings. outstanding.

I never heard the term redditing

As a fellow Australian, should I be called β€œLammington”?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Australians tend to shorten. So, just Lem.

Or lemmie?

I like that Lemmo is just as long as Lemmy, and needlessly confusing, as when shouted, people might think you're saying Limo, unless you're a kiwi.
