Sub-Lemminal messages?

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

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.

Lemmings!!!

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).

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.

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

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

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

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

communities

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”

"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.

Technically communities but I prefer the term sublemmy

Sublemmies?

Fuck it, call them Lem. Memes is a Sub-Lemmy on Lemmy on the lemmy.nl Lem.

I've seen sub-lemmy being used which is cute, but has the obvious ties to Reddit. I guess we all get to work this out together!

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

So subreddit=subs as communities=comms? I'm not typing communities all the time lmao.

Sublemminals, jk communities
