This is sh.itjust.works, which makes me a sh.ithead
E: I stole this from somewhere in the wild and wish I had taken note of who came up with it
Sh.itheads unite!

Here’s the earliest comment I know that used it https://sh.itjust.works/comment/334068
Lol
Personally I think “lemmings” is great because it feels slightly ironically funny and mildly self-deprecating but not in a bad way. Like, the stereotype of lemmings, even though it isn’t really true, is that they’re blind followers, which doesn’t at all fit the fediverse given it’s decentralized nature and lack of one singular direction. Meanwhile, calling some group of people lemmings feels slightly derogatory, but calling oneself something like that gives the feeling of not taking oneself too seriously.
And that we all actively left the site that shall not be named instead of falling in line.
I didn’t even think about the derogatory meaning of “lemmings”… I just think they are cute lol.
I love the image credit to National Geographic
I think the general Lemmy users are lemmings, and we are a lemming sub species…shithead lemmings
Lemons
I prefer Lemurian.
Fuck a lemming, sh.it.heads for life!
Yep, yep.
Lemmlings, as in Earthlings
Yeah I’ve seen people calling others here lemmings, it’s a funny name but if you think about it, here is part of the fediverse and with that comes the thing that it isn’t just Lemmy, there are other platforms (like Kbin) involved, so i think that a more universal naming would probably be more fitting
I guess we all are
I’ve seen lemmings and lemurs. I prefer lemmings.
