When someone refers to a community as a ‘comm’, they’re just trying to make ‘fetch’ happen.
If you hit me up on ‘comms’, I’m gonna need a radio; that’s what the word means, if you’ve been alive any time in the last 100 years.
that’s what the word means
“You can’t use X word like that because [It’s made up|That’s not what it means|It means something else]” argument is always incredibly weak.
At its very core, language is dynamic, words come, go and change all the time. It’s how it works. Languages that don’t change, die.
On top of that, words can have multiple meanings that are dependent on context.
Instead of “sub” , I propose “dom”.

Why not a Binstance?
Listen, “comms” is a terrible name for this concept. I’m calling them subs until something better comes along.
Genuine question as a former Redditer what are they called here on Lemmy?
Comms
