A lot of people say fedditors but that sounds way too derivative of reddit
Lemmings
This so far seems to be the generally accepted term that’s been making it’s way around the platform here recently.
It’s the only reasonable answer given the name really
This and it isn’t even an option
And at some point, someone looking for a payday1 is going to take video of us being herded off a cliff by an asshole2 even though we don’t actually do that unless provoked, and it will become a totally wrong impression of us that enters the common knowledge base.

Ironic, since lemmings don’t actually jump off cliffs. The people making the documentary (Disney) that’s famous from actually threw them over the cliff to make it interesting.
Lemmyngs
This is the correct answer.
DMA Design FTW! (And thanks Psygnosis :-)
The only correct response.
I saw that someone has also suggested calling communities c/liffs, to go along with the Lemming theme. I thought it fit.
I like calling communities “slice” better, because even without the context, the people can guess what it may be. The context is a range of sources quoting:
A group of lemmings is known as a ‘slice’ of lemmings.
It would also go with the idea to call us “Lemons”, kind of like “slices” of lemon pie!
Yeah this was already decided a while back. It’s also why so many communities have AI-created banners with Lemmings doing various weird things.
Could only ever be this!
Gotta be this
I concur

Indeed, this is the way.
It writes itself really
Lemmings, clearly
I don’t understand why this isn’t the most up voted selection.
Ask and you shall receive
Lemmings is the obvious choice
Yes, I’m willing to follow all of you off a cliff.
Did you know, the famous shot of lemmings falling of a cliff in the documentary that started the ideas that lemmings will just die following their peers off a cliff was actually a bunch of documentary makers pushing a bunch of lemming off of it to make a cool shot and not actual lemmings behavior ? You probably did actually…
Is this legit? Do you have a source I could read? If this is real that’s so effed

You can find it on the wikipedia page of the film, but if you search for it on the internet you find a ton of sources https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Wilderness_(film)
heard about it on jre, didn’t even attempt to verify, so no sauce but a trust me bro, this version of the story has little enough consequences and aligns with my beliefs enough that I don’t mind believing it even if it isn’t true
No offense but that doesn’t seem like a good mentality to have…
Yeah, I head heard that… Super depressing. =(
I concur!
I’ll stand by this till the end.
Lemming and proud

Lemmings of course
Yeah, this is the answer
Oh noooooooo
“pop!”
It was tragic and hilarious at the same time, when they grabbed their heads and said that. Even moreso when it was dozens of them.
Lemmings.
This is the clear answer.
It was a real cliffhanger
Lemmings
How is it not Lemmings?
Lemmings obviously
From Reddit’s point of view, we all just migrated off a cliff.
You’re just saying that because everyone else is.
God damn it you’re right. That’s sucks.
It doesn’t suck at all… follow me fellow Lemming, you never know what cliffs we may find.
Reddit is like Disney throwing Lemmings of a cliff themselves
Lemmings, obviously.
Follow the crowd!
