We might as well embrace this name. If lemmy does become a reasonable competitor to any social media, the CEO's will be pushing to call us that anyway....

"Motorheads" is kind of tempting.

However, inevitably people will use "lemmings" no matter what becomes self-chosen.

Suggestions though:

  • Lemmites
  • Lemmies
  • Limes
  • Lemurs
