What's up with so many activitypub services having really cringe names? (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)

Piefedi, lemmy, fediverse? I want to share them as reddit alternatives but their naming is super cringe. Did people find Reddit’s naming choice poor in the beginning?

Reddit is a fire name "I read it on reddit" would be such a sexy tagline.

Also duckduckgo is hilarious as a name
