I’ve heard a lot of people want to change app names. Which I’m totally fine with! I’ve heard a lot of love for the name “Voyager”
So, thoughts? Do you prefer renaming? Do you like the name “Voyager”? Any other good ideas?
Comment below!
I think wefwef is original and fun. Keep it!
Adama or Starbuck
Why can’t we have both?
Wefwef Voyager or Voyager by wefwef
Voyager for wefwef
Apollo went by many different names if you wanna go down that route: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo#Greco-Roman_epithets
Voyager sounds too generic. I like Wefwef
Voyager sounds great to me!
I think something like Voyager would be much better.
Please take this vote for Voyager. It’s a nice nod to Apollo, and it is a real word that people are familiar with.
Or Artemis. I’m not biased
Voyager
I second this, it gives the impression that you’re setting out on a journey when you enter the fediverse which seems appropriate.
What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
I personally am down for the name change. Voyager sounds much more iconic and is easier to pass on verbally than wef wef. It’s also better to make such a change as early as possible to avoid confusion for newcomers.
The verbal part is probably my biggest gripe about wefwef. I love it otherwise.
why? what’s bad about calling something wefwef? it’s just a few repeating sounds. seriously I don’t get it.
I’m curious, what do you mean by the verbal part?
Gonna comment in case the upvotes don’t count, I’m really a fan of Voyager. Not a big deal if it were to stay Wefwef, but Voyager has more appeal to my ear. Either way, great app regardless of name.
Yeah, I think the name Voyager is a lot better than the current name
Artemis?
Already an app in development
Voyager is vastly superior as a name. I’m on wefwef right now, but the name did make me immediately question it :)
Otherwise awesome client so far!
Ya, when talking to mates IRL it sounded as if I am peddling some drug and not a lemmy client to them XD. I think WefWef can be an Easter egg type of thing where the dev can play around with the idea in the future. But it is too discouraging for casual reddit users.
I like it!
I like the name, to be honest
