If Lemmy is going to come up with their own version of Reddit's AMA, what are you going to call it?

Lemmy Ask You
- 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!
  
  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.
Clearly we call them LAMAs.
"Lemmy Know"
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.

"Query Quorum"

"Inquire Within"

"Probing Points"

"Question Queue"

"Ask Lemmy"

"Whatcha Wanna Know"

"Curiosity Corner"

"Lemmy Enlighten You"

"Seek and Tell"

"Lemmy's Insight Exchange"

"Ask & Answer"

"Question Time"

"Query Session"

"Inquiry Hour"

"Lemmy Q&A"

"Question Queue"

"Ask Session"

"Question Round"

"Query Corner"

"Question Us"

"Question Me Anything" (QMA)

"Ask Us Anything" (AUA)

"Interrogate Me About Anything" (IMAA)

"Probe Me Anything" (PMA)

"Inquire Anything" (IA)

"Query Anything" (QA)

"Ask Any Question" (AAQ)

"Pose Me Anything" (PMA)

"Question Any Matter" (QAM)

"Grill Me on Anything" (GMA)

Actually I also kinda like inquiry hour
- 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.
- ChatGPT might get you in trouble with the BBC on 12, considering that's the name of one of their shows. :p
- “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
AQW - All Questions Welcomed ?
Probably this: /c/ama@lemmy.world
- https://trademarks.justia.com/869/44/ama-86944696.html
AMA?
- Reddit trademark
  
  What they gonna do? Sue a decentralised network that noone owns by it's pure design?
  
  What would that mean? I think not much (but not a lawyer)
Permanently Deleted
- 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.
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.
