When you're going from thread to thread and digging deep into content, we can call that going down a k hole.

Versers. Or another user suggested Fedinauts.

Both are platform agnostic and bear no resemblance to "Reddit"

Users. I'm boring but stop with the corny reddit nonsense, ugh.

I mentioned to my SO about kbin. Since then she refers to it as Kevin.

I didn't like the term "Redditor" and I don't wanna be called anything based on what website I go to.

For one thing, being called a "Redditor" was typically a negative. It was a dismissive. The "hive mind" and all that. I don't wanna be associated with a "community vibe." I just want to visit an aggregator that doesn't have corporate baggage and an agenda.

My thing is, we're all just people. Using a web service. So that's what I call us. People. On the internet. I don't need or want some tribal moniker. Not here. Not across a decentralized system.

@Cloudless

Here's two off the top of my head based on reddit. Both aren't my favorite, but variety is the spice of life!

  • Federedditors
  • Reddfugees

We had that thread a week ago and someone suggested kabaneros.

I don't care what y'all decide, I'm gonna go with that one.
