Reddit has subreddits. What does Lemmy go with?

My personal vote is for lemmings!

Edit: I am personally leaning towards Sublemmy now. It retains the context of being a forum under the general sphere of Lemmy and the connection to Reddit lets people know immediately what Lemmy is about. Thanks to @BurningnnTree@lemmy.one for the comment!

    Is this a joke question? You used the term yourself: “Communities”.

    On kbin, they are called “magazines”.

    Still looking for an elegant way to refer to both. Comagz? Magnities?

      To me, that seems a little too generic. Everyone knows that you’re talking about reddit when you reference a subreddit. I want something that has that immediate recall factor.

        Did anyone have troubles to recall or to understand “community”? It’s a quite self-explanatory term, because it is generic.

        Also, please consider:

        • the documentation calls it community
        • the unchangeable URL refers to it: /c/

        For many, lemmy is already complex and hard to understand. I’m worried things like these (if adopted) would make it even less accessible.
