Versers. Or another user suggested Fedinauts.
Both are platform agnostic and bear no resemblance to "Reddit"
I second kbinators!
This one was actually suggested by Bing Chat. It said "Kbinators: A name that sounds cool and futuristic, and also hints at the idea of combining or aggregating different types of content."
Kabineers
Oh sorry I didn't notice that post. Should have looked that up before creating mine.
Nothing to apologize for - the conversation happened in a different magazine. I'm confident there are other places where the idea has been discussed before that one, too. all good, friend /u/cloudless!
When you're going from thread to thread and digging deep into content, we can call that going down a k hole.
Whatever you feel in your heart, honestly. I like kbeans myself
I like kbinaut and k-beans
Those of us who just joined are referred to as Beanie babies.
I have seen kbinauts used before. Credit to some guy.
keebs
Binsters.
kBits? or kboy/kgirl?
kbbles and kbits.

I mentioned to my SO about kbin. Since then she refers to it as Kevin.
I didn't like the term "Redditor" and I don't wanna be called anything based on what website I go to.
For one thing, being called a "Redditor" was typically a negative. It was a dismissive. The "hive mind" and all that. I don't wanna be associated with a "community vibe." I just want to visit an aggregator that doesn't have corporate baggage and an agenda.
My thing is, we're all just people. Using a web service. So that's what I call us. People. On the internet. I don't need or want some tribal moniker. Not here. Not across a decentralized system.
Combine top votes? KBeanauts?
Here's two off the top of my head based on reddit. Both aren't my favorite, but variety is the spice of life!
- Federedditors
- Reddfugees
Kbinsniks
Keebineebies
kbonates is my suggestion, pun on carbonation
