Another vote for a new name here. Voyager For Lemmy is good, but anything else also works. Recommending "WefWef" out loud to anyone is just silly, especially in other languages.
Wefwef is a silly name - sent by wefwef
Voyager, Vger 🖖, Delphi
Vote for keeping wefwef. It’s kitschy and odd and unique.
I like Voyager more than wefwef but I think we can do even better
Voyager does sound cool, and fits the theme of what you’re going for.
But other people mentioning discoverability has me leaning towards keeping the name wefwef. Or come up with an equally unique name.
Captain Janeway is standing by to take command 🫡
Absolutely. WTF is “wefwef”?
Nevah!
I think wefwef is a silly name and I’m surprised that so many people in the comment section like it, because I find the name to be cringeworthy (sorry).
But of course, I will still continue to use this app regardless of what it’s called, just like I still use DuckDuckGo as my search engine, despite it having a ridiculous name lol.
Honestly I don't understand this take. I mean we all just came from a site called "Reddit". How does that have anything to do with if we use it or not? And caring about if it's a "cool" name or not, and then suggesting something super generic and boring... seriously, how old are people who think that way? Are you all twelve, and worried about what your friends will think about you when you're using weirdly-named apps? Who would give a fuck?
And I want to make it clear that I don't just object to the argument of choosing another blander name, but to the the notion itself that having boring, unimaginative, derivative, bland and sanitized branded names somehow would be better than unique ones. How simple-minded and devoid of all fantasy and joy and frankyl, a sad life that must be to think that!
