I'm not going to complain about people talking about Reddit in the short term, since the implosion of that site was a fairly recent (and ongoing) thing that most of us experienced (I imagine there are one or two Lemmy users that just picked it as their first link aggregator/discussion site, but realistically most of use came from Reddit) so naturally people are going to want to talk about it. I'd rather not make the Reddit exodus part of our central identity.
Lemming is fine. Sure, we spend most of our time just walking from left to right, but any one of use could be the one to build the next staircase, bash through the next wall, dig the next tunnel, etc. that will let the rest progress to the next stage.
And then of course there are the blockers who get blown up when their usefulness has run its course. Not sure how they fit into the metaphor.
That brought back a lot of memories. I remember my mom being addicted to the game for a while. MS-DOS days!
