I just thought this might make a fun discussion thread for folks to chat about ideas and make silly pie jokes.
I'm curious to hear what folks think would be fun, or work well!
I thought Lemmy users were lemmings.

I completely forgot "lemmings" π π
I've probably actually seen that one more, I don't know how I forgot it lol
Don't worry about him, he's just an anti-Lemmite
cutie pies
Cutie pies!! π₯Ή
The only downside is it might not be the most self explanatory

FOR THE LAST TIMES, LEMMY USERS ARE LEMMINGS. also, I got a good name for the american piefed users!
I thought we were Lemmings.....
Slices
Not too late for PieFed to rename "communities" to "slices"
This is a quite fun one
We're Lemmings.
It's Lemmings not Lemmites, so keeping that same energy... Piefeedings? Piefeddings? I think Piefedders sounds better, though none of them are great.
However, Piefed does have fed in it like fediverse, so it's not a bad name, just hard to riff off of.

Lemmy users are lemmings
I think Piefed users can be called Piefeddites

Piefeeders PieFeds(like federal agent) piffids piefedditors pies magpies
Its a hard one for names, maybe the name should come from the instance like blarj users.
I think refering to people on piefed as feds without context would be hilarious.
Magpies seems very cute, but like my other favorite so far, might not be super self explanatory

Piefolk
pieple
That's just Australian for "people".
Piedophiles.. /s
Pies?
Pie feds aka βthe fedsβ
Fatties?
After being fed so many pies
This seems like as good a time as any to plug !pies@piefed.social for everything pie-related.

I said it before and I'll say it again: call us all "the Feds".
Pythonidae?
It doesnβt sound very nice, I prefer the othersβ suggestions: cutie pie, magpie, slice, etc.
I choose not to differentiate the two. I think we are all part of the same group
It's home instances that we are tribal about more than software interface.

Slices, because they're a part of the pie.
Serious answer, piefedians, fedians or piens for short.
Fun answer: pie-ons (peons), or of you want to separate the lurkers from the contributors, you have pie-eaters and pie-mongers
I like the idea of pieons, from peon (which I promise I don't mean derogatorily seeing as I'm not on piefed myself)

Pies? Rather simple.
I was thinking about that too. And you know what? After taking part in Mastodon, then Lemmy, now PieFed and discovering PeerTube I now more identify as a Fediverse user than a user of one of the parts
Fediversling/Fediverser lacks an unofficial-official name too, btw ;)

Sorry, I thought the joke was implicit in your question, but the analog to "Lemmites" is "Piefites" which I think is just fine because say it out loud.
