Coming from Reddit, the term subreddit was easy. Is there already a short name for Lemmy Communities?

Lemmity?

Lemmunity?

Sublemmit? (My wife's suggestion, now my current favorite.)

If Subreddit -> Sub...
Then Community -> Commune ?

Seems apt given the developer's political leanings. But it wouldn't be as inviting to neutral users, so 'sub' seems to be fine to me.
