I think you got the nail on the head! Let’s call them spezes. Excellent idea!

I don’t mean the culture. Is that what you mean? I meant the software. The software itself is a clone of Reddit. It works nearly identically, except that it’s a federation of servers.

That why I said it’s a clone of reddit, and that why I replied how I did, because I thought it was silly that you would say otherwise.

As for the culture, I hope it never becomes reddit, but it seems like it’s too late. It seems I have to block some new shitposting community every day.

But I mostly spend my time in niche communities of nice people talking about Zelda or cats, and not about whether Lemmy is a reddit clone or not because that’s a really stupid conversation to have.

BTW, I think your reply was more rude than me saying “you kid yourself”, but whatever. I didn’t actually mean to hurt your feelings.

Orrrrr… maybe I just think it’s too many syllables.

Don’t kid yourself. Lemmy is 100% a Reddit clone. It was literally made as a replacement for Reddit.

Four syllables is too many.
