I know mastodon joked about not changing their name in their recent changelog but I wish they really did change it. It’s long, doesn’t exactly roll of the tongue and it’s difficult to pronounce in most languages.

End of rant.

Edit: above all I don’t think it’s a cool name. Can’t imagine asking my friends to follow me on Mastodon. They’re just gonna think it’s something dumb or weird. At least if it had a cool name they would be curious and ask what it’s about.

      I think it sounds pretty cute!

      Every time you mention Lemmy outside of Lemmy, you get questions about Motorhead. If you type Lemmy into Google search, you get pages of results about the rock star.
