Lemmy’s search widget isn’t working for me. Google produced these questions, but asked a year ago. No consensus was reached then.
Pretty sure it’s a jerboa.
Those lil legs are so awkward, I love them!
I think it’s supposed to be a lemming. I imagine its name is just Lemmy, tho I call him Lem for short. Honestly though any small rodent is going to look like a rat or mouse to me (and I love animals lol.)

Yep it’s a lemming. there’s versions of it in YSK’s community banner and icons too lol, and on mildly infuriating
The more important question is when will we be able to customize its appearance and when can we turn them into NFTs.

I wasn’t gonna wait.
Here’s the first batch of 4 bored Lemmys, quick and dirty. I’mma start the bidding at $600 each.
also /s
I’ll take seven.
I have had an equally difficult time having an AI anthropomorphize lemmings.
Not gonna lie, I didn’t know what a lemming looked like until today.
I think we need to keep trying every so often. Eventually the AI will learn how to draw them in people’s clothes.
I think that’s what happened with otters and why I have been able to amass so many otterotic images.
People like you cause unrest. I respect that.
I do my part.
In my head canon it’s a rat. But I’m very biased.
Looks like it is supposed to be a Lemming, as they refer to it on their github page (4th bullet comment). But I don’t think they actually give it a name.
Also, fun fact, (and trigger warning) the Lemmy logo isn’t symmetrical.
Wow, that’s actually amazing IMO. It’s a tiny reality detail. Heads generally aren’t symmetrical.
That’s it, the fediverse is DONE, I’m going back to reddit.
Need to put that trigger behind a spoilers blocker! I’ll never unsee it…
