So you're saying that you are 😎 fed up?

Show him the door!

Turn lemons into lemonade! Hold a combined renaming vote and fundraiser: €1 a vote, with money going to support development and/or instances.

Although we all know what the final result will be:

This is the way.

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

They.. they arent the same thing?

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 weeks ago

They are not, but the names are close enough that people misread on for the other (example in the body of the post)

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Weirdly never even noticed there would be an issue.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 10 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I just realized they are not the same

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Not sure if serious or not

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Deff serious. I saw both in passing mentioned around fedi. Seeing them side by side, it finally hit

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

Damn. @TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world, another example of confusion!

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 1 week ago

I had the same revelation last month or so.

I think it's a problem in the wider FLOSS community, we need better marketing.

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Best name I've heard of recently is https://blorpblorp.xyz/

Ironic, because the interface itself is very nice

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 days ago

I appreciate the kind words! Let me know if there is any specific features you would like me to prioritize next. I already have a big update in the works, but I’m thinking I improve the crest post experience.

[–] flamingos@feddit.uk 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

How is this the first I've heard of Blorp? Is it new?

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 days ago

Just saw this! I’m pretty new to Lemmy - about 6 months. I really wanted a lemmy app that was cross platform, optimized for larger and smaller screens, and had some offline capabilities.

I have a big update in the works for Blorp, and I will be launching Android beta very soon. Currently it’s web, MacOS, and iOS. Linux will likely be next after Android.

Still a lot of work to do, but I think I’ve laid a really good foundation so far.

Try it!

I think since everything is using slightly modularised software that integrates each other you end up being overwhelmed by so many names.

Like reddit is just reddit. But to use the lemmyverse you have “fediverse”, “activitypub”, then “lemmy”, “mbin”, “piefed”, (Not to mention all the instances and frontends) etc etc

Nerds and terrible at naming things, name a more iconic duo LMAO

If its not that, it sounds like something straight outta star trek. Sometimes I'll be reading some technical things from Intel or Cisco or something and it'll be like "With our new Hyper-Ribbon-Flex-Optical-InterConnect"

Btw Tachyons are an official science thing now
