I woke up in the middle of the night with this thought in my head: “Leaving Reddit should be called Lemigrating.”
2y 11mon ago by lemmy.world/u/meejle in ukcasualThen I went straight back to sleep.
(As for why I'm posting it here, I guess the word "emigrate" just makes me think of the leathery people in strappy tops on A Place in the Sun. 🤷♂️)
For me? Rexit.
But does Rexit mean Rexit?
Well -- I am still there and here, so......
Dual citizenship
The ol' cake-and-eat-it approach to Rexit. I wonder what the Norway modal is...
We'll find out when we GET REXIT DONE
Red, white and blue rexit
Does that mean we're trying to get back in?
Does that make us red-fugees?
And we fedimmigrate
fedigrate
This sounds like a subspecies of a tardigrade
That's a new one. So far I've seen rexxit, rexodus, and rexxodus. I prefer rexxit. It emphasizes the reddit exit, the double x's keep the spelling similar, and you use x's to strike out things you don't like. Also, it's short and easy to type.
Anyway, most people seem to be split between lemmy and kbin.
Rexxit
Someone else had a nice suggestion : fleddit. But lemigrate sounds nice too !
I saw someone call people leaving reddit fledditors. I liked that.
The Great Lemmigration of 23
I like it :) the more terms the better so long as they leave.
promisedverse
I prefer rexxit.
You mean there is another "leathery people in strappy tops" other than Zardoz!?
Bit more tricksy for the people moving to Kbin though. Get your subconscious to work on that one next!
That’s beautiful! 🥰
this looks like it was posted on kbin.social.
Sounds very French...
not from reddit. looked like lemmings swarming this past week

Lemmy is only one place to interact with the Fediverse so that does not really make sense.
Nice one :)
Illegality lemongrating from Redittco
What about kbin and other alternatives? Not everyone is moving to Lemmy. I don't want to use the software developed by tankies.
The kbinflux.
Nice.
That's why I'm on kbin. I'd rather not put my eggs in that basket
