On Reddit it’s call Subreddits, will it one day be called Sublemmies?

    Afaik “community” is the intended Lemmy term.

    If we want to mature and be our own thing it’s also a good idea to separate ourselves from Reddit, otherwise Lemmy will always be considered a “Reddit clone” (even though it technically started as one and still is).

      Yeah like I enjoy this “voting” system more too, it’s just shows both how many people agree and disagree with a comment and it’s more informational that way

        I was specifically referring to Lemmy, not the ActivityPub protocol in general.

        Lemmy is a Reddit clone the same way as PixelFed is an Instagram clone, Mastodon is a Twitter clone and PeerTube is a YouTube clone.

        I don’t use “clone” as a derogatory term, there’s nothing wrong with getting inspired by other sites and implementing something better.
