Lemmings
This so far seems to be the generally accepted term that's been making it's way around the platform here recently.
It’s the only reasonable answer given the name really
This and it isn't even an option
And at some point, someone looking for a payday1 is going to take video of us being herded off a cliff by an asshole2 even though we don’t actually do that unless provoked, and it will become a totally wrong impression of us that enters the common knowledge base.

Ironic, since lemmings don't actually jump off cliffs. The people making the documentary (Disney) that's famous from actually threw them over the cliff to make it interesting.
Lemmyngs
This is the correct answer.
DMA Design FTW! (And thanks Psygnosis :-)
I saw that someone has also suggested calling communities c/liffs, to go along with the Lemming theme. I thought it fit.
I like calling communities "slice" better, because even without the context, the people can guess what it may be. The context is a range of sources quoting:
A group of lemmings is known as a ‘slice' of lemmings.
It would also go with the idea to call us "Lemons", kind of like "slices" of lemon pie!
The only correct response.
Could only ever be this!
Yeah this was already decided a while back. It's also why so many communities have AI-created banners with Lemmings doing various weird things.
Gotta be this
I concur
Indeed, this is the way.
It writes itself really
