Is this a joke question? You used the term yourself: "Communities".
On kbin, they are called "magazines".
Still looking for an elegant way to refer to both. Comagz? Magnities?
To me, that seems a little too generic. Everyone knows that you're talking about reddit when you reference a subreddit. I want something that has that immediate recall factor.
Did anyone have troubles to recall or to understand "community"? It's a quite self-explanatory term, because it is generic.
Also, please consider:
For many, lemmy is already complex and hard to understand. I'm worried things like these (if adopted) would make it even less accessible.
