What do we call the equivalent of a subreddit?
Sublemmy doesn’t quite roll off of the tongue as nicely.
Reddit wants you to call them communities too, but most people still call them subreddits or subs.
I usually will say or type “community”.
Woah I never speak of lemmy
A /c/ommunity
Communities - they’re abbreviated to /c/ and that seems a pretty consistent term.
I vote we call them lems.
lemmy community
I usually call them boards when I can’t remember the name “community”. There are lots of kinds of community. An instance might well be a community if you are browsing local. Board is shorter and my brain wants to use that word anyway.
a sub
Read your question back. What did YOU call them? Yeah, that’s what they’re called.
For clarification, it’s communities, not sublemmies.
Community seems to be the de facto name but I really don’t like that. We need to agree on something else.
Community or if we’re just spitballin’ here, it could be Sublemmit
Burrows, since they’re what lemmings live in.
Sublemmy. Plural sublemmies.
Honestly I think we can just call them “subs” like we did on Reddit. “Sublemmy” sounds clunky but sub still works and we all know what it means.
The answer is in the title. Thank you.
You just answered your own question in the title, you call them communities. It’s what they are called by the Lemmy-UI software, and also why they have the /c/ prefix in their URLs.
