ржунимагу / lol / лол


Explanation:
Добрый день!

Допустимы варианты, которые я указала выше.
Все зависит от контекста, в котором вы хотели бы употребить перевод.

Можно оставить без перевода. Эта аббревиатура уже стала широко использоваться на русскоязычном пространстве и может не требовать перевода. Все зависит от контекста.

В таком случае я бы оставила "lol".

Смеюсь в голос


Explanation:
Используется в оригинальном виде в рунете, но, тем не менее, если нужен перевод, то самым близким вариантом в данном случае будет "смеюсь в голос", так как наиболее близко к оригиналу. А вот отсебятины в духе "ржунимагу" в духе небезызвестного udaff.com или "умираю от смеха" лучше избежать.
Речь ведь о переводе, а не о художественной адаптации!

disagree  Yuliya Dziarbeyeva: предлагаю для начала ознакомиться с контекстом, а затем делать выводы и давать советы) к тому же очевидно, что с лексикой, используемой в Интернете, вы не слишком знакомы, если считаете, что в соц. сетях кто-то будет писать "смеюсь в голос" :)

Reference: LOL 8-)

Reference information:
I spent some years wondering why my Dad ended his text messages to me suggesting he was ‘laughing out loud’, often when no joke appeared to have been made, until I realised that he was under the impression that LOL meant ‘lots of love’. It’s 1-0 to me here, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, which dates LOL for ‘laughing out loud’ as far back as 1989, and doesn’t currently include it as an abbreviation for ‘lots of love’ – but both of us are beaten, chronologically, by a definition that dates back to 1960, where LOL is used as an initialism (but not an acronym) for ‘little old lady’.
