Release Friendica 2023.12 released · friendica/friendica
The name of this product is terrible, sounds like some disease
Welcome to open source softwares!
Judge me. Here are some names I can think of:
I'm out of ideas.
Connect is pretty generic and used in a million other places. There is no spelling variation unused.
SocCenter is worse then Friendica to my ears.
Open Doors sounds like a suicide prevention group.
Maybe it needs an acronym of some sort instead...
I may be weird, but I like Friendica.
Friend + Ica
Friends, friendly
Like erotica, but friendly.
"Erotica with Friends" may pigeonhole it a bit. It'll become every other "friend" making app full of dick pics.
Let's just call it Make Important Life Friends and leave it as an acronym.
Why would you call it makimlif?
/S.
:'(
You're supposed to pronounce it "May kill if"
Mmmmm.... SoakCenter.
SocCenter sounds like sock center, your application of choice for everything socks
I'm in
openfloat openflow openfast openflight
How about Boat4Sale? I mean realistically in 5 years or less that's what most socials devolve into anyway....
SocialPoops
How about Socialite?
That one might be wrapped up in copyright. There was an app called Socialite a few years ago.
Damn. Okay.
I didn't think it was that bad til I heard something good like this.
Same reaction. I was like, "Hold on... Friendica sounds like a Tata Vehicle with integrated AI features" 😂
At least it used to be spelled with a k instead of c, so it looked like the name of an old Eastern bloc brand of tractor or something.
In a lot of balkan languages this is similar to how you would say girl friend (we spell it frendica) so it's kind of interesting
