Im excited about all the apps but to be honest i hate the names of most of them. Mlem, wefwef, memmy. Idk the overly cute name makes me think of dudes who owo in people's DMs

[-] Tygr@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I love the WefWef app but hate every time I have to type that ridiculous name out. There’s absolutely zero chance I will ever say that horrible name aloud to people either.

Apollo was an awesome name. WW, opposite.

Voice your opinion at !wefwef@lemmy.world. The dev has already considered renaming as the current one was picked arbitrarily and partly because it's easy to type with one hand 🤔

Lol I started using liftoff on android for that exact reason. Idk what's so appealing about baby talk for app devs that they name stuff like that

I'm going back and forth between Jerboa, LiftOff and Thunder.

[-] Diogenes@udclemmy.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

I'll have to checkout thunder. I haven't heard tried that one yet. There's so many apps being made right now!

Imagine being so insecure that you won't use an app because the name isn't manly enough. (Although to be fair i am also using liftoff atm because it was the open source app that worked the best last time I tried them all)

Lol nobody said anything about being it not being manly. I said it sounds like baby talk. It's childish and sounds silly. It's more telling that you read baby talk and immediately thought about how unmanly something is.
