I like that one, but a little misleading if it's an IAMA. Maybe Lemmy Answer Anything? Though, LAY has a better ring to it than LAA now that I think about it.
Lemmy Tell You?
Or it could be Lemmy Asks You Anything. LAYA
That's a good one.
We're done here. That's the one.
This is perfect, but regardless I'd rather celebrities or whomever don't come to Lemmy.
Probably AMA, it's not like there's anything related to Reddit in the name
And yet, Reddit trademarked the term.
That's BS! We had AMAs on AOL!
Is there any way to invalidate their trademark if there's proof that the term was used on AOL? Would be a fun way to fuck with them.
This is the kind of stuff I would use my money for if I was filthy rich.
AMA : Ask Moi Anything!
No way! Then probably something like Ask Me Something?
How does that work in the US? Since e.g. in the EU you can trademark everything and anything you like no questions asked almost. But it doesn’t mean anything if someone will dispute it. It doesn’t give you any rights or guarantees.
This isn't my area of expertise, but I believe you trademark something by simply using it with disclaimer language/the ™ symbol to warn others to stay away, that it's yours. The ® symbol is used if you've taken the step of officially registering it and it's been reviewed/approved by the government, like with AMA, so it's considered stronger.
And unlike patents/copyright, trademarks last forever as long as you keep using them.
Can’t add anything else to the discussion, i know too little about it. But a US tm is not legal in the EU without separate registration. But i would not waste any energy on it. The value is in the community, not in the name.
"Lemmy Know"
Clearly we call them LAMAs.
LMAY - Let Me Ask You
LAY - Lemmy Ask You
Why complicate things?
AMA is already defined in our lexicon beyond Reddit
I asked ChatGPT for an alternative and Question Me Anything sounded the best.

Probe Me Anything
Someone needs to make a sub called Lemmy's Insight Exchange and have it be about over-the-top ridiculously fake news articles from all over the world.
Bitch to moderate though.
“Lemmy Enlighten You” is actually decent.
I tried pose me anything on a girl in college. Didn't work how I planned.
Since so many AMAs had lots of questions but frustratingly no real answers how about AAQ ... Answer all questions?
LAQ? Lemmy Ask Questions
I like this. Works well on SEO too and can easily be identifiable with Lemmy.
I can't believe 3 letters that stand for ask me anything have been trademarked, we live in a sick world
Lemmyknow
Lemmy Ask You: LMA
I don't see why the need to change "Ask Me Anything." It wasn't exactly a Reddit specific name or even a cutesy name, such as "AskReddit/Lemmy" is.
AMA?
Reddit trademark
What they gonna do? Sue a decentralised network that noone owns by it's pure design?
Most likely the owner of the instance hosting the community.
What would that mean? I think not much (but not a lawyer)
Ask a Black Dude
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=4fPDRlS-UuU
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
QandA? QnA? Short for 'questions and answers'
It's an incredibly broad term and I'd be shocked if anybody trademarked it like Reddit did with AMA.
Way too similar to the qanon nuts.
AQW - All Questions Welcomed ?
