    Calling someone a “redditor” gave off weird vibes anyway. I’d prefer just saying something like “Lemmy user.” :P

    It was discussed at length a few weeks back and “lemming” was the clear favorite.

      I only ever saw “lemming” being used, was not even aware there was a discussion. Happy with the result though!

    I like Lemming, but one possible issue is that it also works as a verb - we (maybe) used to say “I was redditing for hours last night”, and now it would seem to make sense to say “I was lemming”.

    Or maybe not, maybe the verb could be Lemmying?
