From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

They're communities. And the different servers/sites are instances.
Lemmunities (I pulled it out of my ass, take it or leave it)
I’ve seen “communities,” and my personal conceit is that “like” communities (communities with the same, similar, or synergistic subject matter) are “cohorts” so you don’t have to type “multi-communities”
can we call them commies?
oof, id rather call them "comms" or just "cs"(cees)
i come from a country where commie is never used as a slur, but by the number of replies that i have received that are mildly horrified, i guess that i may need to think of a different name!
Sublemmies?
I like the idea to put lemmie in every word it is like with batman. Users should be called Lemmiathans.
