I know the obvious things like federation and fediverse, but do we say upvote/downvote, updoot, karma? I hate to bring up the software that must not be named, but I don’t know what else to call things.

- Community - the equivalent of a subreddit. Some people shorten it to “comm”.
- Instance or server - a site using Lemmy or Mbin or PieFed, with multiple communities in it. For example lemmy.world and mander.xyz are instances.
- Upvote, downvote - the same as in Reddit.
- karma - it would be the same as in Reddit, except that the main software (Lemmy) doesn’t have it.
- Lemming - a Lemmy user
- Defed - often used as a verb. Because “defederate” is too long.

I haven’t seen lemming in like a year when reddit users (including me) were moving over and some people apparently needed a replacement for redditor.
I don’t remember ever seeing defed in place of defederate or comm in place of community, but maybe I just missed out on that.
