What do we call ourselves? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Recently I wanted to refer to the general populace of the divisions by zero, but it occurred to me we don't have a good shorthand for it,. I.e. like one talks about "lemmings" or "redditors". We could use something for members of lemmy.dbzer0.com.

Ideas?

Eh, i like our instance having an identity :p i don't see it as elitism, just some fun. Users of dbzer0 works just fine, too; but having a little nickname is cool

Anarchists and elitism, can you imagine?

Doesn't lend well.

This just in: gay people are elitist because they have their own culture and in-jokes! How dare they exclude homophobic straight people by calling themselves fags and other things

"Can you imagine?" in this context usually is a scoff or an expression of disbelief.

"Doesn't lend well" here means those two things don't mesh.
