I just thought this might make a fun discussion thread for folks to chat about ideas and make silly pie jokes.

I'm curious to hear what folks think would be fun, or work well!

I like the idea of pieons, from peon (which I promise I don't mean derogatorily seeing as I'm not on piefed myself)

I'm also open to thoughts on "lemmites"! Its what I default to but I suppose it may be presumptuous for me to assume its what everyone uses, or wants to use :)

Pie peeps occurs to me as a potential option

@Cris_Color Since they're armed with pies, how about "clowns"?

I like "Fedlings" personally.

Pie lovers but we are lemmings.

[–] badgermurphy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I'm sure some of them are pieholes.

I have been using "Pie-heads", b/c we are just crazy enough to make that work! :-P

pieheads

And the network of Lemmy + PieFed + Mbin (+ nodeBB + flarum) as the "Threadiverse", distinct from the wider Fediverse that also includes Mastodon, PixelFed, etc.

The fact that you name dropped NodeBB (a good example), Flarum (which has no working federation), but did not mention Discourse (which has only partially working federation and limited threadiverse support) gives me the warm and fuzzies 🤣

That's only for those on US-based instances... i.e. American Piefuckers

Hope you have a lovely day!

I don't really call them lemmites, haven't seen anybody else do so either, I think Lemmings has such a cool ring to it, very cute animals that travel in groups.

As for Piefed users if it's competing with something that cute then my vote is Piefolk.

I got a better one if you understand french : pivert.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago

Im not very fednocentric so I like the federation to refer to all. Possibly influenced by an ip I like.
