Yeah I agree, honestly I just get real sick of corporate assholes and get unreasonably angry, so I don’t want to “give-in”. I’ve been going back on RIF to spread word of Lemmy to see what I can do, but come July 1st, that won’t really be an option anymore since I’ll have to navigate through their ad-ridden app and will eventually give them money.

Personally I prefer Community, it is nicely neutral and conveys the correct message I think. If people think that’s too broad, then “sub” is a solid short option.
