I don’t even know what sublemmys are called, M pretty sure it’s not that
“communities” are what they are called.

Sails are hoisted shipmate! Tell the captain we are running downwind heading for the great treasure!
I’m not sure I can narrow it down that much, but my favorite instance is Solarpunk (slrpnk.net), it’s got a load of communities I’m interested in.
Easy: c/sublemmunities
Communities. They’re called communities.
Yeah, but how to shorten it??
Comms?
moons
Short for 'munities.
They orbit the central world of the instance.
Phone starts vibrating … that’s no moon
Muns
Mūns, if anyone asks for clarification.
I can dig it.
Digg was two sites ago…try to keep up.
Web 2.0 was a mistake.
I love this, gonna start calling them that.
I’ve been calling them forums
Cums or cummies?
Commies, even
Isn’t the short form of communist just “socialist”?
All communists are socialists but not all socialists are communists, it is a broader term.
Socialism ≠ Communism.
Yup. I was joking. Making fun of the right wing who pretty much use the terms interchangeably
No, no, the short form of communist is Lenin, he was about 5’4.
Oh that makes more sense. Thanks for the correction
Yeah, but how to shorten it??
Just ‘c’.
I shall hereby always refer to them as /c/'s then.
You don’t. We live in the wonderful age of keyboard predictions where you type. Comm and community and communities both pop up as options. You’d have to take extra steps to get it any shorter.
Unless, like anyone with sense, you just type c/ or c/s and have done with it :)
I like “communities” but the problem is that in a broader context, no one will know what you are talking about. “I saw it in the memes community” sounds too vague. Saying “I saw it on the memes subreddit” is perfectly clear. Because of this, I think “sublemmy” is a better, more descriptive term.
That’s inherent to the fediverse. You have to specify which instance you’re referring to. The wording between “community” or “sublemmy” isn’t actually helpful when you have to provide the instance domain anyway.
Domlemmy sub?
👉👈
And sites have always had features like communities and groups, so it’s not out of the ordinary to say which service the group is hosted on.
I’m a weed head and it’s always nice to talk to like-minded people
Loved that the community kept the name.
Communities or magazines on kbin.
I do like sublemmies though…
Gotta be honest: I’m all for communities. Hate magazines.
Me too. That magazine thing confused me at the start.
If we’re being honest, I hate magazine less than I hate sublemmy.
I hate u/spez less then I hate sublemmy
Lemmunities
+1
