minus-squareR0cket_M00se@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoCommunity seems like a fine name, did you want them to call it a subreddit? Lol
minus-squareSpacemanSpiff@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 year agoNothing wrong with community, the point is Lemmy created the term the same as Kbin created magazine. Not every microblogging site in the fediverse calls them “toots” for example.
minus-squareR0cket_M00se@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYeah but community does a good job of explaining what it is conceptually with a word everyone understands, while being “vendor neutral” as it were. “magazine” tells me fuck all, I’m not even certain what it’s supposed to be.
