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.

    Nazi: When somebody on lemmy says this, they aren’t talking about literal jackboot historical underlings of Adolf Hitler, but instead referring to anyone who isn’t firmly on the progressive side of the political aisle.

    Tankie: I’m still trying to figure this one out. Apparently it’s not referring to tank roles in online games. It supposed to be insulting, despite sounding very laudatory.

      Tankie: far right lunatic who delusionally believes they’re a communist (or trollingly roleplays as what they believe one to be), despite defending authoritarian oligarchic states like Russia or China.

      For instance, the Lemmy devs (and lemmy.ml admins).
