c/YouShouldKnow should’ve been called c/LemmyTellUSomething
(reddthat.com)
/c/gonewild -> /c/lemmyseeyounaked
Or lemmysmash
/c/tinder -> /c/lemmyin
/c/eli5 -> /c/lemmygooglethatforyou
/c/relationshipadvice -> /c/lemmyout
Just c/LemmyTellU. That way we can have
c/LemmyTellU about this new thing
c/LemmyTellU that something is happening
Be the change you want to see
As an enjoyer of puns, I agree
Dude that's genius!

Ha!
We should also have a c/LemmyAskYouSomethinRick because that popped into my head when I saw this.
Okay, serious question... Is lemmy supposed to be pronounced like the contraction of let+me? I've been pronouncing it like... Limb+E.
No, you're correct. The software was named after the small rodent (lemming). One of the co-creators of lemmy talks about the name here: https://lemmy.ml/post/70319
It's just that "lemmy" sounds like you're saying "let me" quickly and not enunciating properly.
