That's exactly why, actually. It's too easy, like a kid naming their dog Mr. Woofs or naming a car Sally. I feel we can be far more creative.

I can't, but I'm sure someone can.

We'd become twice as interesting to people who've never heard of us.

Have you seen the wars on Lemmy?

Ah yes child. The war of the wars, I was there to witness it...

Seeing as how roughly zero percent of us are neurotypicals, yes that tracks. 😎

But on Reddit, sub is short for subreddit. How is this any different?

They're used to subs and people don't like change to the point that they'll make up nonsense to justify their views.

Yeah but I want to argue about something.
