Lemmings
I think lemmings is the used term. But judging by the logo we're mice
- Or maybe it is a lemming.
  
  It looks like it wants to sell single cigarettes to middle schoolers.
Linux users :P
- What you are referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
  
  ChatGPT also knows this xD https://chatgpt.com/share/00b6e835-452d-48ad-a04d-d15611816ea1
Depending on the person, either Lemmings, Lemmies, or Lemurs, and subreddits are Burrows.
- If I get a vote, I vote Lemurs.
  
  You get a vote, but you don't live in a swing state.
Lemurs
- Leap! Leap!
  
  A Zoboomafoo fan in the wild?!
Lemmings
with the federated nature of the verse, do we need a name for a single contributing platforms users?.. maybe.

you have kids using only 'apps' who barely know what the lemmy platform does, because all they know is the app theyre using.... you could have magazines that have zero lemmy users contributing, because the content and its users are interacting from different, compatible fediverse platforms.

it gets somewhat muddy

ive been noodling on what we should call users of the fediverse as a whole
- Noodles it is then.
  
  Moodles.
- feds
  
  feds already has a largely negative connotation... for brittany especially.
Lemguinis
I heard lemmings and lemmies, usually people just use "y'all"
I wish we could reconsider the name "Lemmy" to begin with
- Lemmings<Kilmisters
Lemmerites
Kilmisters.
Lemons 🍋
Keeping with the spirit of the Fediverse, maybe every instance should have their own.
Lemminos.
