*Lemmings. (I was going to use that as an answer to your post, but someone learning something new never gets me even the slightest bit miffed.)

Most scam products like "power saver" plug-in modules for your home, fake ODB2 gas saver modules for cars or those little stickers for cell phones that are sold as "antenna boosters". Also, anything that is marketed as a "detox" product will piss me off.
All of those products are actively being sold on Amazon, EBay and at some other major retailers or in malls. They are openly sold because people refuse to learn that magic does not exist.
Please. Stop buying these things.
Fedizens?
Kbin was a flop (at least in the direct sense), but Mbin and sometime Sublinks will be released allow federation with Mastodon and some other stuff, so this is more inclusive.
Also Leftist Lemmies may become a thing, bc of all that about the origin of the code and supporting genocide in China (and sometimes Russia), so Fedizen avoids that?
Are we... (Star Trek) Fedizens ✨? Learned (Loony?) Lemmites? We'll decide at some point. :-P
Many instances have already adopted the lemming as a mascot, like my home instance:
Still though, you do you. I got no complaints about what people want to call things. ;)
Well I am not in charge, but I did think I'd offer that thought for consideration, as it offers greater inclusivity. :-)
