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.

Ha!

We should also have a c/LemmyAskYouSomethinRick because that popped into my head when I saw this.

Can’t wait until he renames Reddit to W.

I still play through Final Fantasy VI at least once a year.

People have mentioned Mass Effect so a big +1 to those games as well.

My “main” account is on .ml but I went ahead and made an account on another instance just in case. It couldn’t hurt imo.

Super useful, thanks! 👍
