minus-squareCascadianBeam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up52·1 year agoI thought it was because Reddit is like “read it” and Lemmy is like “Lemmy show you this”. Lemmings is a great name though.
minus-squareDrQuint@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up23·1 year agoI didn’t really think much of it myself, but when I joined, for like two weeks, joining instances was a bit harder due to some being closed and others having sporadic downtime.
