Show him the door!

Turn lemons into lemonade! Hold a combined renaming vote and fundraiser: €1 a vote, with money going to support development and/or instances.

Although we all know what the final result will be:

This is the way.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 14 points 3 days ago (2 children)

They.. they arent the same thing?

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 3 days ago

They are not, but the names are close enough that people misread on for the other (example in the body of the post)

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Weirdly never even noticed there would be an issue.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I just realized they are not the same

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Not sure if serious or not

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Deff serious. I saw both in passing mentioned around fedi. Seeing them side by side, it finally hit

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 days ago

Damn. @TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world, another example of confusion!

I think it's a problem in the wider FLOSS community, we need better marketing.

Best name I've heard of recently is https://blorpblorp.xyz/

Ironic, because the interface itself is very nice

[–] flamingos@feddit.uk 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

How is this the first I've heard of Blorp? Is it new?

I think since everything is using slightly modularised software that integrates each other you end up being overwhelmed by so many names.

Like reddit is just reddit. But to use the lemmyverse you have “fediverse”, “activitypub”, then “lemmy”, “mbin”, “piefed”, (Not to mention all the instances and frontends) etc etc

Nerds and terrible at naming things, name a more iconic duo LMAO

If its not that, it sounds like something straight outta star trek. Sometimes I'll be reading some technical things from Intel or Cisco or something and it'll be like "With our new Hyper-Ribbon-Flex-Optical-InterConnect"

Btw Tachyons are an official science thing now
