I just thought this might make a fun discussion thread for folks to chat about ideas and make silly pie jokes.
I’m curious to hear what folks think would be fun, or work well!
I thought Lemmy users were lemmings.
I’m still holding out for Motörheads
Yyeess! 🤘
I completely forgot “lemmings” 😅😅
I’ve probably actually seen that one more, I don’t know how I forgot it lol
Don’t worry about him, he’s just an anti-Lemmite
Diabetic.
Rippp 😅
We’re Lemmings.
FOR THE LAST TIMES, LEMMY USERS ARE LEMMINGS. also, I got a good name for the american piefed users!
cutie pies
Cutie pies!! 🥹
The only downside is it might not be the most self explanatory
(Off-topic, but your username is fantastic!)
Thanks! I think some buddies came up with it when I was young. It sounds slightly similar to my surname.
Lemmy users are lemmings
I think Piefed users can be called Piefeddites
What about piefediles?
Yes, but pronounced pee-eh-figh-dulls
Piefederalists
Seconded
Winchesters
Piedophiles… /s
Federati.
Piedofiles.
It’s Lemmings not Lemmites, so keeping that same energy… Piefeedings? Piefeddings? I think Piefedders sounds better, though none of them are great.
However, Piefed does have fed in it like fediverse, so it’s not a bad name, just hard to riff off of.
Re: Lemmings.
How about Magpies?
Feedlings?
piefeddings is good!
Glowies /j
Crusties
Serious answer, piefedians, fedians or piens for short.
Fun answer: pie-ons (peons), or of you want to separate the lurkers from the contributors, you have pie-eaters and pie-mongers
Piefeeders PieFeds(like federal agent) piffids piefedditors pies magpies
Its a hard one for names, maybe the name should come from the instance like blarj users.
Magpies seems very cute, but like my other favorite so far, might not be super self explanatory
I’d prefer piefeditor, without the double “d”. Unnecessary callback to the other site.
I think refering to people on piefed as feds without context would be hilarious.
How people will see us then:
I’m down. I’m already a fellow kids guy as it is.
Welcome fellow human! Ah… I mean “kid”, yes, we are just
going to kill all sentient lifeforms“kidding” around here, certainly nothing for the authorities to get involved in, move along! :-PBe cool bro
