Then I went straight back to sleep.

(As for why I'm posting it here, I guess the word "emigrate" just makes me think of the leathery people in strappy tops on A Place in the Sun. 🤷‍♂️)

But does Rexit mean Rexit?

[–] GabrielBell12fi 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Well -- I am still there and here, so......

The ol' cake-and-eat-it approach to Rexit. I wonder what the Norway modal is...

We'll find out when we GET REXIT DONE

Red, white and blue rexit

[–] Skellybones 1 points 2 years ago

Does that mean we're trying to get back in?

Does that make us red-fugees?

This sounds like a subspecies of a tardigrade

[–] DocMcStuffin 21 points 2 years ago

That's a new one. So far I've seen rexxit, rexodus, and rexxodus. I prefer rexxit. It emphasizes the reddit exit, the double x's keep the spelling similar, and you use x's to strike out things you don't like. Also, it's short and easy to type.

Anyway, most people seem to be split between lemmy and kbin.

Someone else had a nice suggestion : fleddit. But lemigrate sounds nice too !

[–] SoPunny 8 points 2 years ago

I like it :) the more terms the better so long as they leave.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

I saw someone call people leaving reddit fledditors. I liked that.

You mean there is another "leathery people in strappy tops" other than Zardoz!?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I prefer rexxit.

[–] TeaHands 5 points 2 years ago

Bit more tricksy for the people moving to Kbin though. Get your subconscious to work on that one next!

[–] jokes_on_you 3 points 2 years ago

Sounds very French...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

this looks like it was posted on kbin.social.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

@meejle That made me laugh. 😂

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Nice one :)

[–] m3t00 1 points 2 years ago

not from reddit. looked like lemmings swarming this past week

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Lemmy is only one place to interact with the Fediverse so that does not really make sense.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

What about kbin and other alternatives? Not everyone is moving to Lemmy. I don't want to use the software developed by tankies.

That's why I'm on kbin. I'd rather not put my eggs in that basket
